I would love to get magnatiles for my kids for chanukah, but they seem to be quite expensive for a toy! Anyone know where the best aka cheapest place to buy it would be?

they're pretty expensive and usually no sales AFAIK

i once saw someone offering magna tiles in a Jewish store but it was a different brand, so beware and make sure they are original.

I don't have any kids but I would be shocked if he doesn't carry any popular game, I would call him to find out. 732-363-4009

I've heard that Valtech will replace broken magna tiles without asking to many questions.  Personally, they initially gave me hard time and now completely ignore my emails.  Anyone have similar experience?
If you don't care why would you comment?

I have the original and an off brand called magna-sticks. The original's magnets are significantly stronger.

If you wear an automatic watch make sure to take it off before playing with the tiles with the kids because they can temporarily ruin the watch movement.
