Build A Bear
 
Is anyone else crazy about them?

I have the:

Frog
Elephant
Koala Bear
Light Brown Bear
Velvet Puppy
Floppy Puppy
Nikki Bear II
Giraffe

And I can't get enough. I don't really buy the clothes for them though I do have the Yankee shirt and the full Yankee uniform.

I have one. I didn't know they finally made a frog, or I would have had one by now!:)

I have one. When they get Hello Kitty, I'm going to have to get that one. Last year they came out with a lamb, I was going to get it because that's the KLP mascot, but her legs looked really funny and just weird. I'm waiting for them to get a duck!!!!

One day, when you grow up, what will you do with all these ridiculous stuffed animals?

I haven't ever understood the fun of Build A Bear. It's kind of like fondue. Why should I pay you a lot of money so I can stuff my own bear/cook my own food?

I got the frog back in October.

Rudey: I love stuffed anaimals...always have, always will. Can't sleep without one (really, even by my ex's I sleep with the bear that I got him).

one of my friends who just crossed SIA got one of her big's a Build-a-Bear with a lettered shirt. it was cute, and i kinda want one for myself.

then again, this is case in point of how big business makes crazy money on super-specializing for their target market. bringing novelty to anything and convincing people that its logical to put down $$ on said product becuase of the vast amount of CHOICE. (ie Jamba juice, Cold Stone, dunkin donuts when it debuted, etc)

hell, this is why buffets and mix-your-own-salad bars, among other businesses, are successful. now customized teddy bears? this is why people get irate when they have lack of choice. i throw a FIT when i cant get liquid sugar in my iced coffee @ dunkin donuts (i know, assinine, right?)

maybe we will get a specialty chain fondue shop and get charged overpriced $$ for fruit and bread on a stick.

You have more than one big in SIA? I thought you only had one. A couple of my friends are SIA's and I thought they each had one big and one little.

I wanna do a Build a Bear so bad! They are finally putting a shop in my local mall

For a while they had a flamingo!!! And one of my TD family tree traditions is flamingo stuff! I wanted to get one so bad but just didn't have the cash. However, I went NUTS at Kohl's this weekend buying a flamingo planter for my apartment, and a flamingo margarita glass for a future little (combines two traditions!) .

I wanted the Flamingo but I never got the chance to buy it.
