Webkinz!
Have your kids discovered Webkinz yet? Webkinz are cute little stuffed animals that come with a code to unlock a whole world at Webkinz.com. They retail for about $13 or so, but that’s if you’re lucky enough to find them. Lately, it’s been a little easier, but a few months ago, we found ourselves desperate and searching all over for them.
When I could no longer find them at my local gift shop(Webkinz are not sold by mass retailers. They’re only sold by smaller, independent(but sometimes Hallmark) stores) I turned to the internet. Where did I start? ebay of course!
To my shock and dismay, the little critters were going for a whole lot more than I was willing to pay. Next I hit up Froogle. There weren’t many reasonable options there either.
That was a few months ago. Now it seems that at least some Webkinz are easily found. Do a search on Amazon and you’ll find many listed for under $10. Some are even $7.95. Yes, you pay shipping, but it might keep you from driving around town in desperate search of that all important special Webkinz!
I saw the Dalmatian, several of the other dogs, along with the Hippo and quite a few others on sale there, so if you’re searching for a Webkinz, go take a look. You might find the one you’re looking for!
