BOSTON (CBS) – When you are a kid on Christmas morning, it’s all about volume. But when you are a parent, cruising the aisles of the toy-store in December, it’s about trying to balance a happy holiday with a reasonable budget.

Paul Reinsmith of Boston has found a great way to have plenty of toys under the tree, and all year, without breaking the bank.

Paul and his wife Pam discovered what they call the ‘Netflix’ of toys.

It’s called Toygaroo, a website that lets parents rent toys for a fraction of what they would cost to buy.

“It’s the ideal situation for the holiday time,” Paul said. “You can stuff toys under the tree for under 50 bucks. If you were out there buying them, there’s just no way you could do that.”

Yeah, basically. People can go on the show and try to sell their products to five loan sharks for investment with basically an elevator pitch. It's based off of a British version called Dragons' Den.

Fun fact: Steve Jobs actually went on Dragons' Den in 2010 to pitch the iPad for investment but they turned him down.

lol, "Son, Santa wants his toys back."

Sad for the child that gets attached to one or all of they toys and then they are gone. Give and take a toy away from a child, not too sure about that!!
