****URGENTLY***** Seeking Hippo

7 replies

Chiccadum · 20/10/2003 18:51

I was just wondering if anyone out there has a specific cuddly hippo that they don't need or are not using.

The one I am wanting is from ASDA last year, he is brown with cream inside the ears, and on the arms and legs and a very round tummy. He is approx 12" from the tips of his ears to the bottom of his feet.

My daughter has one of these but he is gradually becoming worn, she adores him and carries him everywhere she goes, she will not sleep or go anywhere without him, hence for the need of another. I would be willing to pay for the teddy and also P&P.

If you think you may have one and would like me to e-mail you a picture of him, please let me know.

Thanks

Its a longshot, I know, but well worth a try (really). Email your 'plea' to Asda customer services (explaining about your daughter) and ask if, on the very off chance, they have any old stock of these in any of their stores. You never know, you might just be fortunate and get one that way.
