Sunday Amazon Deals: Despicable Me, YA books, Large Toys, more!

Before getting to the one-day-only deals, a reminder that you can nab $5 off any $15 purchase of books at Amazon through Monday.

Amazon's started their $Winterholiday Countdown (okay, they call it "12 Days of Deals"), and the focus today is on kid stuff. All of these are one-day deals:

The Despicable Me 3-Movie Collection (with the two DM movies and the Minions film) in a Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital combo pack is $17.99 (40% off).

There's a huge one-day Kindle book sale including Rick Riordon books (about 20 of them), Ivy and Bean books (most $.99), and assorted others by Melanie Dickerson, Kami Garcia, Kelly Barnhill, and Antoine de Saint-Exupery (yes, The Little Prince will only run you $1.99 today).

There's also a big sale on, well, big toys. This ranges from a 20" Darth Vader for $19.99 (less than half of what it costs elsewhere) to a 5000-piece K'Nex Roller Coaster for $353 (amazingly less than half what it normally costs from other retailers). Needless to say, Prime Shipping's really your friend on these deals (which also include huge dollhouses and other large toys).

If your kid likes music, or if you're an aunt or uncle who wants to drive your sibling crazy, there's a sale on assorted musical instruments for kids, including guitars, drum kits, xylophones, and more.

And finally, a one-day deal that's not kid-specific: The Queen-sized Intex Pillow Rest Classic Airbed with Built-in Pillow and Electric Pump is $19.99 (46% off).
