I'd hate to be that little girl. lol

"Yay I found me Abbey!!" *walking around the market with momma holding onto Abbey*
"Can you go get some milk??" Momma would ask.
"Okay Momma." *Skips to milk freezer with Abbey* "I can't carry both. Wait here Abbey, I'll be right back to get you." *Leaves Abbey in freezer*
*At checkout* "Where's the doll you wanted??"
*Realizes she forgot Abbey* "...=_=;......****..."

o gawd I feel so awful for coming up with a scenario like that. =_=;

Either that or someone desperately wanted her but didn't have the cash and didn't want anyone to buy her so they left her there so no one would find her to get money from an ATM Machine.

OR

A kid really wanted her but their mother said no, so they just played with her for a bit like children usually do and left Abbey in her natural habitat or at least what was closest to it. lol

I hope Toralei makes her way to your place. Sadly I also heard that the stripes on the Werecat twins wash away too. >,<;

haha that's awesome LuvlyMelody.

To me it sounds like someone was trying to be creative with hiding her for later.

Yeah, I read about the stripes in the hair too. I'll be careful

Either that or some girl was smart enough to be like oh no aren't you the daughter of the abominable snow man?! It's way too hot for you out here on the shelf! Let me get you to the freezer.

I hope your Toralei arrives soon Okie! I'm looking for one myself =]

Yeah that's the sort of scenario I was thinking of

I can get Torelei's for people (mines pretty!), but they'd be coming from the UK and potentially more expensive due to exchange rates, let alone shipping. Think they're £17 for me.

Well, after saying that I probably wouldn't order anything else from TRU.ca.....I did

...The werecat twins were in stock today... for a lot longer than I thought they would be too, about 10-12 hours....so I got them. Since Torelei showed up okay I'm not really worried about it. Let's see if they actually send them through Canada Post like their website says they will! lol

kamakazee82 · « **Reply #24 on:** May 12, 2012, 04:06:10 PM »

lol you brave brave girl! lol *crosses fingers*

haha

I swear I was looking at the computer screen for about 20 minutes telling myself "don't do it"...but ended up caving because there is the chance that my boyfriend and I might never find them in store. He talked to a manager at the Ann Arbor TRU, who told him that they weren't in stock anywhere in MI, and that they didn't even have any at a warehouse ready to send out. They're on order from the manufacturer lol. So who knows when they might randomly pop up or how many would be available...it's likely we would spend a ridiculous amount of time and money (gas) trying to track them down. And I know that there are a lot of people looking for them here too, so I thought it would just be easier for me to grab them while I could.

A bit more and I might as well have bought them from a scalper lol... with shipping and taxes they were $50

kamakazee82 · « **Reply #26 on:** May 12, 2012, 05:01:43 PM »

yeah ... shipping is a pain ... but when you factor in gas ... makes it a little easier to swallow

jupiternwndrlnd · « **Reply #27 on:** May 12, 2012, 05:08:25 PM »

nice packing job TRU! LOL but YAY!! she made it

congrats!

Okiedokieloki · « **Reply #28 on:** May 12, 2012, 05:12:11 PM »

Yeah, that's why I used my boyfriend's amazon account for Abbey, the Draculaura and Clawd set, and the CaM packs. They were all being sold by Amazon for retail or a bit better, and no shipping, tax, or gas burned to go pick them up. I wish amazon.ca offered Amazon Prime....and sold toys.... actually, maybe it's better that they don't....

rofl

and thanks Jupiter
