Are you talking about the new theme stuff, Sheri? The stuff in the w-shop new section? That is fun. I don't mean to sound like a know-it-all. I just like to share any news with my friends here. Cindy PMed me the site where I get all of my info now. The directions in WW are very sketchy at the best. I go other places for clues on how to do things and where to find things. Then I bring them here to share. It's all for fun.

darn, i can't get into one of my yards to garden, and i was really looking forward to some watering can time. i did get 2 code cards in a trading card pack today, that was nice. oh, and for some mysterious reason, webkinz finally let me claim my trading card car today. i won it back in july and wrote them numerous times, and today, voila, we finally got it! shhesh.
Cool Patunia. Congrats on the car. I've had a heck of a time accessing one of my rooms last night and today. Gotten booted few times today, too. The site must be busy.

Yep I do, but Rachel you don't need to send me anything. My pets just aren't mohawk sort of pets....I tried it on them but they just weren't feeling it so they asked me to send it to Brennan. :wink:
That was so sweet. We sent you a present. You may already have the stuff but it's cool things you can never have too many off. Ashton looks so cool. I'll post a picture of him later on.

If you never have you should. These things are fun and fun is good.
He is thrilled. I am too. I've drove myself nuts checcking the curio shop every single hour for weeks just trying to find that. You have no idea how much time you have saved me.

I'm glad you sound like you know it all because several of us here don't know any of it and depend on you.
I am here. I was just checking to see if I could zip in and click for Jiffy's cash on the hourlies. But it looks like I don't need to. I haven't had much time for WW today. Still got company.

Well, our company is gone for the night. John's sister went home to San Diego and his brother and nephew went to their hotel. I can kick back and unlax now. His brother and nephew will be back tomorrow. I gave the nephew a webkinz beagle for his four year old daughter.

You are supposed to get more tokens on your pets' birthdays and anniversaries when you joined WW and other special events. I think the ten can come soon enough.

Loz, you would have went crazy with what we saw today. We went to a mall in Cincinnati. They had the claw grabber machines everywhere. One was full of nothing but Webkinz!!!! Brennan can usually get anything out of one of those machines. He's a whiz at them. But they had them packed down in there so tight nothing was budging. After putting $2 in there I decided it would be cheaper just to go to a store and buy one. We found Lil Kinz for $7. And they actually had one Brennan didn't have. He got the Lil Kinz persian cat.

Very cool on the new family members, Jessica and Rachel. I am a total dunce with the claw machines. I admire anyone who can succeed with them (usually kids).

Awesome on Tristan getting new pets.....that's so exciting Jess. When are YOU getting another one? Does he sleep with his?
Rachel, I would've tried like heck for one out of that machine. I'm pretty good at them, Mark is really good at them. When we first started dating he'd win me a new stuffed animal each date. I'm glad Brennan got a new pet, how many is that now?
Brennan can usually get anything out of those machines. When we took Mommy to the airport one time he got 2 animals at 1 time! They had these Webkinz very stragetically placed (crammed) in there were it was virtually impossible to get one out.
We're up to 53 pets now. We're gonna slow down on buying them. There are a couple of the new ones we want but we aren't going to get all of the new ones like we usually do. Brennan wants the bengal tiger and HAS to have the snake. He hasn't quit talking about the snake. I think the mouse will be really cute. I would like to have that one. I was able to get the snake and bengal tiger reserved at one store. The snake may not be a problem to get without reserving it. The bengal on the other hand will definitely be impossible to get without reserving it. Anything bengal related would be gone in a heartbeat around here.
Rachel
(the new and improved Mrs. rachelc)
If you never have you should. These things are fun and fun is good.
I'm so glad you got them on reserve....I'm still holding out hope that my sis will get them in at Crackerbarrel. I'm sure around there the Bengal will sell like hot cakes.
2 animals at once huh? That takes some skill.
I'm with Brennan on wanting the snake.....even my best friend Mel that has 3 webkinz(she just bought a penguin), is dying for the snake. It will be hard to get.
I think it's cool of that store to reserve them like that. Goodness knows they don't have to do it. It's nice to know I can get the ones he wants without having to stress and run places looking. And to make it even better, it's the cheapest place here to get them. They still sell them for $12 and $9. Most of the stores around here sell them for $16.50 and $13. Some are even higher!!

The only place I saw prices like that was in limited too. That is sad. I wouldn't have ever started getting them at that price. If Teddy didn't like the plushes so much, I don't think I would have gotten any more.

Tristen is really into this now and he is loving his Webkinz. Yes he does sleep with ALL of them very night. He takes mine to bed too. He got the horse from his grandma over the weekend and I got him the collie. He was with me when I got that one and that is what he wanted because my mom has a sheltie and it looks like her dog. So he named it Sasha which is my mom's dogs name. I bought the reindeer because it was 50% off. I am saving that for another day for him. His grandma said she was getting him one for his easter basket and his daycare provider got him the raccoon for his birthday. I will put one in his easter basket too. :Thumbup:
The place I as at yesterday was expensive for them. The big ones were $15.95 and the lil kinz were $13.95. I thought that was expensive. Next time I have to find a cheaper place!
It's ridiculous that some places are trying to sell Webkinz for so much money! Especially when that site I buy them from sells most lil kinz for $5.95, just goes to show you how much they are marked up for them to still be making a profit of them at that price.
My friend was at the Mall of America and called me because some of the Webkinz were on sale for 9.95. I had her pick up 2 of them for me. I figured I will put one in Tristen's easter basket and give him one for his birthday. I got the spotted frog and the beagle. I think the spotted frog is very cute!! They had the black cat and the gray cat on sale too I guess. Limited Too has some of the Webkinz buy one get one free right now. They are more expensive than most places but not a bad price after you get the deal. They have 10 different ones on their website.
I have the spotted frog....I love it! I never liked the frog much but they grew on me. They are really big too compared to some others, like the black bear.
I wish I could go to the MOA. I'dbe a shopping fool. Have you been there a lot yourself?
I have been there quite a few times. I was in a class for work a couple weeks ago and there was people there from all over the country. A lady from Oklahoma was sitting next to me and said that she thought she would go the MOA before she went home and she asked if I recommended it and if I liked it. I said....yes you absolutely should go! If you come to MN you should do that because it is a very neat place! But....I live here and don't go too often because it is too big! It is fun if you just want to wander around a bit and don't really have any specific shopping in mind. When we go there we usually go there for the rides...it used to be Camp Snoopy but now it is Nickelodeon something or other. I can't think of what they call it now. We take the kids there and go to Lego Land but not a whole lot else. Honestly I haven't gone there to shop in a LONG time! You would be very overwhelmed by it but like I said...I would recommend that everybody go there if they have a chance.
The frog is big Loz! I was surprised!! Have you seen the duck? Somebody told me it was new for Easter. That one is big too.
I have the duck. If you webbie addicts check out the T. Willy topic you will see my guest of honor & he was loving my Webkinz.....
I tell mom if I win the lotto that we will go to the MOA on a huge shopping spree......for at least a weekend, and just buy whatever we want. How fun would that be? I'd love it. No budget, no men to tell us what we need or don't need.
I was going to come back here and say that I see you have the duck but you beat me to it! I just looked at the pic of Willy with the webbies! You have lots of them! I see they all still have their tags on too. That is a good idea. Tristen wants his off right away.
Jess, I'm just too lazy to take them off....the codes are all out of them....I'm so excited when I get new ones I rip the code out of the plastic and the poor plush is stuck wearing an empty tag holder.
I have too many. It's Cindy's fault. And my sisters for working at Crackerbarrel and calling me all the time saying, oooooo we got this one in do you want it? Ooooo, we got that one, do you want it? Like I can say no.
Turns out Athena adopted the Kangaroo she got me.....all by herself. So Allison said they were all gone now so she got me the Schnauzer instead and hid it in her car so Athena wouldn't find it.
Isn't she? I'm proud of her in a round about way---even though it was my Kangaroo. I said to her, did you adopt my Kangaroo that you mom bought for me---she said no---mom bought that Kangaroo for me, you didn't get any Webkinz.
I'll take the Schnauzer though, Allison said it was cute.
i think i might have messed up my account "inadvertantly" i was on webkinz last night and just decided to look into the new items in the w-shop and it said that the pink lounger chair was in there, mind you there was no picture, but i bought it anyway. sometimes when i do things kinda fast in webkinz world some of the little icons don't have time to load, like stuff from the w-shop especially food. but i know where it is and if i am fixing a recipe or something i just flash forward to the page the item is on and click it and go. it always shows up in the dock okay when my dial up catches up.....not so the new chair. i sat. i waited. blank window persisted in the dock, so i dragged it into the room anyway, and voila....big blue box. my lilkinz terrier just stood there staring at it, like "wow, you shouldn't have" "really". but now, its too late, the room won't open...and my poor lilkinz is trapped in there with a big blue box.
so i have to show you what i did... i adopted another pet. i have a bag full to adopt still but this one was calling out to me to adopt her. so, i present tina!
she really likes the chiquita banana girl look, it seems
Darbi has 2 items, the sandwich maker is one, that she put in the bedroom and now we can't get them to move. Her pet walks right through them like they're not there at all. Any ideas?
Yes, those are 'stuck' items. I have a few. There is a place specifically to email for stuck items. I haven't bothered yet. Sometimes what happens is items are placed on a table or something. Then it gets stuck outside of a room. If you move that table or remove it those items will remain stuck either outside the room or in the room. It is annoying. But in ganz support there is a form to fill out.

Loz, no guarantees, but your goalie mask lamp might be available between 8-9 am tomorrow. (it was on Asian accounts). I may or may not be able to get it for you. Depends on how my morning goes. And if it is even there.

You won't believe this but I was up for a change.....I was. And I just logged into Webkinz at 9:04 my time. I didn't see this post or I would've went there earlier...darn it. I have no luck with catching things.
I didn't get in in the hour either. I am also watching for it for you. I wasn't positive it would be there. Sometimes the Asian accounts and ours don't jive.

We got the bengal tiger and the tiger snake the other night. He hasn't entered the snake yet. He doesn't know what to name it. If you guys have any good ideas let me know.
Libby Lou had the wacky zingoz. It's really tiny. It's about the size of a lil kinz and they wanted $16.50 for it! I wasn't about to pay that. It kinda cute but the cutest thing about it is hearing it talk. I love it when it says 'shake that thang!'

My sister got me the Schnauzer so I hope to get it today. I talked to Athena last night and she said, Aunt Loz--I have your Schnauzer and I added it to my account.....I was like WHAT!!! You took my Kangaroo, now you took my Schnauzer.
Allison got on the phone and said, oh I got you one too---it's hidden in my car.
Athena said she named her Schnauzer Santa Claus because it has a beard.
We named our schnauzer Scruffy. He just had a scruffy look to him.
Yeah, the plush zingoz talks. You have to squeeze it's hand and it says 4 or 5 different things. It's barely 5 inches tall, a tiny little thing. I expected it to be about 8 inches tall. Brennan got upset with me that I wouldn't buy it. $16.50 is outrageous. Especially when we had just come from Hallmark where I had bought him 2 Webkinz.
I'll give him your suggestions for the snake Loz. Thanks. He is running out of ideas for names. I'm not even sure at this point we don't have 2 with the same name. With these last 2 we're up to 53 in 1 acct and 2 in the other. Ganz should start sending us thank you gifts!
Rachel
(the new and improved Mrs. rachelc)
If you never have you should. These things are fun and fun is good.
I wouldn't pay that for the Zingoz either. No way. That's too much for a tiny thing.
You have a LOT of webkinz. I just counted, I'm up to 32 right now. 28 in one account, 4 in the other. I wish I would've just put all of them in one account at times.
A snake could also be, Slither or Scaley. Coming up with names IS hard. I might name my Schauzer Cory for my nephew....I already have my sister, Athena, and Kristen(my other niece)....just need Cory to round out the family.
They won't give me any free ones because they know I'll end up buying all of them. I think it would be really nice once you got over a certain number of them to let you choose which exclusive you want. That would be really cool. I think there is still a few exclusives he doesn't have.
You know, speaking of what would be cool. I think it would be fantastic if they had a 'trading store' in WW. They could assign a point value to exclusives just like the wish tokens and let you trade what you have for other items of the same point value. We have so many duplicates we could trade with.

That would be cool. I like that idea Rachel. Tell Brennan he can name his snake Tina. I would not mind. I like snakes. If/when I get a snake, it will be Sssssss.

He wanted to name it Hissey! I'm so surprised he hasn't come up with something. This is the longest he's had a pet and not entered it into the computer. We've had it 3 days now.
Rachel
(the new and improved Mrs. rachelc)

It sure is. He has been waiting for the snake ever since they announced it. He absolutely loves it. When we got to the mall the other night as soon as we got close enough to see Hallmark he took off running in there. He had that snake in his hand with a huge grin before I could even get in the store.
