Is there a really kind Mumsnetter who lives near a Tiger store?

Would anyone who lives near a Tiger store be able to help me?
Last year I got my son a multi coloured cap with a propeller on the top from Tiger. He LOVED it and wore it lots and lots. Sadly it got broken recently by another child and he is so upset about it. I don't live near a Tiger store anymore and they don't do online orders.
I bought a substitute hat via ebay but it's rubbish. I desperately need a replacement from Tiger.
My son has some additional needs and is very focused on this hat if anyone could get one and I could reimburse you I would be so so grateful. It would make a fab Christmas present! X

I pass one on my way to work and will have a look in the morning. Do you have any photos of it?

Hello - I was in Tiger for ages last week but I didn't see such a fabulous thing I'm afraid.

I was in the Croydon one today and that hat wasn't there I'm afraid.

I live about 100 yards from one. I'll try and pop in at some point tomorrow on the off chance it's there.

Can you email / tweet head office to see if they can find you one if it's out of stock in the stores? (It's ruddy marvellous, by the way!)

There is a remarkably similar one on eBay here

And one in the UK, although it has a blue peak.

Threads like this make me feel all funny (in a good way!) about what a lovely place mn can be

OP tether's link to ebay uk looks good?

I'm in Dublin so they might have different stock, fingers crossed!

Don't think they have this in the Edinburgh store but I'll look, I go past it on way to work.

Thank-you all so much. I did email Head Office and they did say they still stock them.

Thanks for the ebay tip but I tried one of those and the propeller was really flimsy it didn't go round in the breeze like the lovely Tiger one.

I sometimes pop in to Basingstoke which has a Tiger store. If you haven't got one by Monday/Tuesday (which is when I'll next be going there) and if nobody has yet looked in that store then let me know via PM and I'll pop in. X
