The Smart Shopper’s Guide to Building a Tonies Library

If you’re new to tonies®, or a longtime friend, you’ve probably noticed that there’s a new character or fun collection coming out every month! We don’t do that to overwhelm you; we do it so every kid has something they can connect with and get excited about. The other side of that coin is that your listener’s wishlist might always seem to be getting longer. Use these pro tips to keep their collection fresh, while making sure you’re getting in on all the deals and savings you can.

Their wishlist grows every time a new Tonie drops. Here’s how to keep their collection growing, one good deal at a time!

Where can I find the next tonies® sale?

The first rule of saving with tonies® is definitely make sure you’re signed up for emails and texts. You’ll get 10% off your first order, with no minimum purchase, no waiting for a special discount or specific holiday to save. It’s kind of like having your own personal sale! It’s the simplest place to start, for sure.

Next, bookmark the tonies® Sales & Promotions page. New limited-time discounts are going to be front and center there. Shopping for a friend’s birthday? Did your listener get an A+ on their math test? Did they do all their chores this week (without complaint!)? Hop over to this page to see how you can save on a new surprise.

And a general rule of thumb: orders of $45 or more automatically qualify for free shipping, no code needed. It just magically shows up in your cart!

But let's talk about traditional sales, too. You’ll find tonies® is usually in on the typical sale rotation most retailers are. That’s where your new favorite bookmarked website is going to earn its keep. And remember when we talked about signing up for texts and emails before? They give you reminders of the latest deals on our website so you won’t have to worry about missing them. Think of this email as your own tonies® saving assistant.

How tonies® bundling saves you more

Ready to start that first order? You’re going to need a Toniebox (check out the Toniebox 2 vs. Toniebox Lite comparison chart to pick the perfect one) and a couple Tonies, of course. Buy those essentials together and you’ll enjoy a great discount for doing so.

tonies® tip: Throw a few accessories like headphones or a carrying case into your bundle and you’ll save on those too!

Here’s why tonies® bundling is the way to go. The math gets better the more you add. A Toniebox and a single Tonie is a fine start, but a Toniebox, four Tonies, a Tonieplay game (Toniebox 2 only), and some accessories is where tonies® bundling turns into a “Wow!” at checkout.

The same savings apply when building a Toniebox Lite Bundle. It’s the newest addition to the tonies® universe is a compact player built around the essentials. It trades a few Toniebox 2 extras for a lower price tag, but it still works with all Tonies. Looking for Tonieplay? That’s exclusive to Toniebox 2. Pairing the Toniebox Lite with a starter Tonies set keeps that first purchase a little lower than a Toniebox 2 setup. It’s the perfect pick as a second Toniebox too, for when your listener wants to take their stories to a new destination.

Gift a Bundle & Save

Bundling works for gifting, too. It’s a great option if you’re buying for a niece or nephew or a grandchild and want to give them a truly engaging, interactive gift. A small bundle is a head start into a screen-free audio journey, and you’ll benefit from the savings as well.

What’s a tonies® subscription? And is it worth it?

Now that we’ve got your listener set up with a Toniebox that suits them, let's talk about a great way to keep their subscription updated.

A tonies® subscription sends 2 or 3 Tonies in one package on a regular schedule. They are chosen for your little listener’s age and interests. You pick how often they arrive, every 1, 2, or 3 months, so it can run as light or as steady as your family wants.

Every shipment includes:
* Free standard shipping
* Up to 20% off the price of individual Tonies
* Discounted extras you can add to any box

And you’re in control of the whole thing. You can edit, skip, or cancel anytime. What’s really fun about subscriptions is that you have the option to pick which Tonies get sent, or you can opt to have us surprise your listener.

For families who are already buying new Tonies regularly, a subscription works out cheaper than shopping one Tonie at a time. And let’s not forget: Kids will love getting new Tonies. It’s fun for them to get something in the mail and you don’t have to remember to reorder! Kids love consistency, right? 

The gift that keeps on giving

The subscription is an awesome idea for gifters. Sending a few bestselling Tonies every month or two is a thoughtful way to keep listeners engaged in new stories and new topics. We love this, especially for grandparents, to keep the conversation fresh with their grandkids.

Building a full Tonies collection doesn’t have to happen all at once or even at full price. Sign up for alerts, watch the Sales page for the next promo and think about how those opportunities can help you (and the gifters in your listeners’ lives) keep their collection fresh and endlessly interesting.
