Gotta Go Flamingo

[Chattercino]

Fellow Mumsnetters

I've dropped a bollock and hoping someone many be able to help me. My four year old daughter has asked for a god awful "Gotta Go Flamingo" for Xmas. It's the one thing that has remained consistent on her ever-changing list. Well, typically they are out of stock everywhere it would seem. Our local Asda had loads of them but every time I went I was with DD so didn't buy one. Could everyone keep their eyes peeled for me? I'm hoping a nationwide search might be fruitful! I'd massively appreciate your help xx

Before lockdown my local Asda Living had them but they weren't on the shop floor. I had to ask someone and they got me one from the back. I was also with my DD but a bit of miming and mouthing who it was for, and the sales assistant took it to the till and bagged it for me, DD was none the wiser!

I was extremely lucky a few days ago and got one from a local toy shop, but they’re like hens teeth.

Have you tried smyths? That's where I got my DDs from. It was top of her list 😂 strange child. I did pay a wee bit dearer for it but they had it in so just bought it

Where are you in UK op?
Argos has it in Dumfries (I'm not there but it tells me I can drive there to get it. If you close enough that's an option)

It's also on Amazon OP.....

There's a few in stock for click and collect from the entertainer? Toy shop.com? Depends where you are though

4yo DS2 asked for it, too!! 🦩 I got mine from Amazon, they seemed to have a glut a few days ago

I can't believe we've got to share a house with it, tbh.

Smyths are showing back in stock early December. I typed in Gotta go flamingo Asda in my google search ( it won't show up if you go to asda website because its out of stock On-line) and it took me to the product, even though its out of stock on line it let me look at the stock checker. It showed the asda living in my area had them in stock. Im sure they are closed right now but will open up when lockdown ends Wednesday. Might be one to check out, plus they're £25 right now. Our 4yr old granddaughter hasn't shown interest in the pooping bird, shes all about that bloody yapping unboxing puppy

I’ve just seen the advert, is that sort of thing what I’ll need to get used to? 🤭🤮

The song is catchy, I’d understand if it was aimed at potty training ages ect

How on earth do you subtly mime "shitting flamingo"?!!

If you ever want more "food" for it you can spray normal sand with scotch guard to make it hydrophobic.

I think amazon is going to be your best bet. There all out of stock at Argos and smyths near me.

OMG i am in the same position. My 5 year old DD is desperate for this and ditto the only consistent item on her Santa list! Cannot find it in stock anywhere (aside for ridiculous money!). Will let you know if find any!
