So there's bad news & good news & I hate bad news so lets just get it out of the way first...

If you're one of the parents that recently spent hundreds of dollars on the newest iPad, it's only going to get more expensive. According to experts, the toys that connect to iPads are one of the 'must have' gifts for kids this Christmas.

From remote control helicopters, robots & toy cars that can be driven on the iPad's screen, these toys can cost parents up to $70 each, and it doesn't stop there! These types of toys are set to keep you forking over the money via apps you have to download for them.

The good news? Christmas is still 124 days away which is still plenty of time to get a second job so you can afford all this. . . .
