If toys and games are on your shopping list for the holidays -- or your child has a birthday party invitation on the fridge -- here's a nice opportunity to save a few dollars.
The Hasbro company has a spot on its website where you can print coupons on toys and games.

Maybe you're still obsessed with Words With Friends or Angry Birds. It's time to give something new a try. Draw Something recently topped both iOS and Android App downloads.

Coupons.com is offering a dozen coupons on toys and games that have the potential to match up with clearance sales at Target and other stores trying to reduce their after-Christmas inventories.

Think birthday party gifts and other special occasions throughout the year.
Most of the coupons expire March 11.

The long wait is over, mostly. Sony has finally begun the process of restoring PlayStation Network services, starting with online multiplayer functionality.
The service has been down since April 20, after a security breach resulted in some of users' account information being compromised. Sony decided to rebuild the network completely in response, and all PSN and Qriocity services have been down since.
The service's return comes with a PS3 system update, requiring all users to change account passwords. Sony promises that the PlayStation Store will return soon.
Here's the announcement video, and here's a map detailing the status of PSN restoration.
