If that’s not Kenough to get you excited, we also found out it’s on major sale on Amazon and Walmart for just $11.97, but you gotta act fast. We don’t know when this deal will end.

1. The Barbie Monopoly game has already been ordered over 10,000 times last month. What’s so special about it?
Just like other licensed Monopoly games including Star Wars Monopoly and Mario Bros Monopoly, Barbie Monopoly uses the classic Monopoly layout and strategy while adding plenty of custom pink properties and specialty cards.
Players will choose from six “Be Anything” cards and travel the hot pink game board using six Barbie game tokens including a pink high heel, roller skate, dog, boat, Barbie bust, and car. And instead of building red hotels, you’ll build pink Barbie Dreamhouses ー though no mention of Ken’s Mojo Dojo Casa House here!
Kids ages 8 and up can play this game, with two to six players.

2. Amazon and Walmart have the cheapest prices online for Barbie Monopoly.
By comparison, Walmart will ship your Barbie Monopoly within six days. So if you’re in a rush, Walmart is your best bet!
3. Shop in-store at Walmart to get it the fastest. Target has the game too, but you’ll pay about $6 more.
During the game’s first new months, it’d go in and out of stock like crazy. But right now, it’s fully in stock at Target, Walmart, and Amazon.
If you want to get your hands on Barbie Monopoly ASAP while also getting the lowest price, shopping in-store at Walmart is your best bet. Just make sure to call the store to make sure it’s already in stock before making the trip. Right now, several stores within 10 miles of me have it in stock.
Target’s price matches the MSRP of $24.99. But if you use your Target RedCard to purchase the game, you can get it for $23.74. In mid-October, you could’ve taken advantage of Target Circle offers to save $10 when you spend $50 or more on toys, or save $25 on toy orders of $100 or more.

4. Steer clear of eBay; sellers are already trying to charge more than double for the game.
Yep, we found eBay listings asking for $46.88, $49.99, or even $59.99 for the game. This doesn’t include shipping. This is wrong, but sellers know that this game will likely be in demand due to the Barbie movie’s popularity. Unfortunately, anyone who misses the Barbie Monopoly release on Amazon or Walmart might feel subjected to this unfair pricing. So it’s best to secure the goods now on Amazon or Walmart if you don’t want to pay double.
5. Expect lower prices on Barbie Monopoly compared to other special edition Monopoly games.
When not on sale, classic Monopoly is priced at $21.99 on Amazon, which is $3 less than the MSRP for Barbie Monopoly. However, other specially licensed Monopoly games tend to be more expensive than the preorder price for Barbie Monopoly. Here’s how other special edition Monopoly games are priced:
- Lord of the Rings Monopoly, $44.50 on Amazon
- Game of Thrones Monopoly, $34.87 on Amazon
- Disney’s The Little Mermaid Monopoly, $27.99 on Amazon
- Pixar Edition Monopoly, $26.99 on Amazon
6. Save up to 50% on special edition Monopoly games during Black Friday sales through the middle of December.
According to the Amazon price tracker, CamelCamelCamel, special-edition Monopoly games go down in price every November through December on Amazon.
For example, Pixar Edition Monopoly dropped from $26.99 down to $13.99 on December 9 in the last two years. Additionally, Lord of the Rings Monopoly dropped from $44.50 to $21.00 during Black Friday sales last year. Also keep an eye out for board games to get marked down as much as 53% during the Target Semi-Annual Toy Sale (which happens every June/July and December/January).
Look for price drops on Barbie Monopoly during Black Friday sales this year, and be sure to download the Krazy Coupon Lady app for sale alerts and other great game deals.
