Barbie Dream House Sale for Black Friday
Barbie has been a major childhood staple for decades now, so she’s always one of the trending TikTok toys. Just take a look down the overwhelmingly pink Barbie aisle of any major retail store to see that she and her accoutrements are more popular than ever.
While the ultimate Barbie Dream House changes models every few years, there are also smaller, more affordable options in which Barbie can reside.
Like this Barbie dollhouse that’s just $50 (regularly $75) at Walmart. It may not be the 3-story Dream House with a pool, but it’s got four full rooms of Barbie activities and a working water pump in the refrigerator! With most Barbie Dream Houses hovering around $199.99, this little abode is just as good as anything you’d find in Malibu.
