To feel sick, at the price of Zhu zhu pets

[redflag]

I mean my god, its scandalous!

GD wants them, it's not happening!

Is that the same thing as those hamsters that no-one could get last year?

I thought DD would really like one of the hamsters last year, as they were 'the number one toy'
I went everywhere, and had all the family scouring every toy shop. When my sister finally got me one, I was over the moon, and couldn't wait to see DD's face when she opened it.
The bloody thing was still in it's box in February.

We got one for DD last Christmas - she really liked it, but we kept losing it under the settees - it has now completely vanished. I had thought about getting one each for her and DS for their stockings, but not at a tenner each or whatever they cost.

Well i got them for my friends children, for one rat thing its £9.99 a battle suite for the rat to go in was £10.99 i thought they would be a fiver really. And i got the "battle arena" and it was £30 and they don't even put a pet in with it.

I was in shock really.

Not that i mind it was within budget,however, i hoped they would get a bit more than that.

If you don't mind which one you get you can get them on Amazon at 'only' £6-£7 each (but they choose one at random and some are even more hideous than others. My DCs are getting one each in their stockings.

Tk max have them.

£4! Bloody hell i have been had! Glad mine don't want them, i would tell them to sod off i think!

Yes I paid a silly amount for one last year, but believe me, children get bored of them very quickly!

YANBU, they are overpriced. My dds wanted them last year and I resisted, but they still had them top of their wishlists this year so I gave in.

The cost of the accessories such as blankets is even more shocking. You can get non-official cheaper versions of the blankets and beds on ebay, though.

they are even more annoying than real hamsters

I imagine they are TheFoosa.

Ds thinks he want one this year. He doesn't.

I got one from boots on 3 for 2 but had a voucher so it worked out at £5 and one from sainsburys sale for £4.99 quite pleased. Ds didnt have them last year but I thought id get him one this year as he likes his cousins. He wanted the ninja ones they're quite funny :)

£5 in John Lewis on Friday, I picked one up for dd2 after managing to get one for d1 in the Sainsbo's sale for half price too. I wouldn't pay £10 for one.

IMO the Fur Real Flurries are much cuter and better , but they are quite hard to get hold of.

I didn't find them that expensive but only got a couple hamsters and few bits. I felt ripped off by a piece of crap toy for DS birthday though which was £40 and utter crap worth £10 if that...(Zingzilla range)

My girls have played with theirs a lot, so they have been worth getting. We don't have the accessories though, they use their doll furniture and cardboard boxes to make homes for them and a hula hoop as an enclosure.

I really don't like the toy ranges where they are a tv brand, they are always a rip off!
