[shabbychicdee]

calling all LA/US pony friends.
close friends of yours are in LA at the moment.......lucky things, doing all the fantastic stuff and they asked my for a shopping list  . i love them.

so please i need your help on what is in the shops, so far i have heard the 'pony power' Walmart exclusive bling bag set has arrived, what else is there, i haven't had much time to be on the arena lately so i am a little out of the loop.

has the CE princess ( the 3 princess) set arrived in shops
what bb wave is available in store?
i feel like a kid in a candy shop as we have missed out on so much G4 stuff this year in nz 

please and thank you

If by LA you mean Los Angeles I can help

Yes the Target princess set is in stores and can be checked by the target website.  The G1 t-shirt was also in stock and is very cute. 

There aren't a lot of walmarts in the greater LA area, but I did see the pony power set in the Torrance Walmart as well as the bath set, haven't ever checked the valley walmarts. 

I have just picked up FS Pinke Pie and Fluttershy at, Ross dress for less, a big discount chain here.  Also TJ Maxx, Marshals and Tuesday Morning have had pony merch.

I don't follow the blind bags so can't help there. 

feel free to PM and  I can go into greater detail as the where and what I have been seeing and it will depend on where they are staying LA is a big crowed city. 

Good Luck and I hope you score lots of ponies.

Also the TRU's had  the Nightmare Moon Fan Favs in stock last week.

Not OP but I'm going back home to the LA area for a week and all this is making me excited! I've been having bad luck with Fashion Styles out here in Indiana. I didn't know Ross had ponies, there's one next to my local Asian market. I'll have to check that out!

I'll have to check out Torrance based on your tip. Closest Walmart to me is in Duarte and they've been pretty bad about stocking.

[pallas]

Ugh the walmarts here have terrible pony sections.  Oddly enough I found the posters at the Crenshaw baldwin hills walmart but that was a long time ago.  Skip the one off the 405 at vermont or crenshaw, they never have anything.  The Torrance one is brand new and next to a TRU with the Del Amo mall across the street so that potent shopping day. 

The Targets are on every block now, I have 4 all pretty close to me and they will usually have a pretty good selection but that will vary from target to target, so will the price BTW, the flower fillies would range from 14.99 to 17.49.

Yes check the Ross's the FS Fluttershy and Pinkie pie are there for 5.99!  Also I saw some of the Fun at the fair, sweets boutique  and nursery tree sets at TJ Maxx but that was about a month ago. 

Also for fakies Tuesday Morning and Big Lots have some in stock now. 

You will probably have better luck at the walmarts on the outskirts of the metro LA area.  I plan on hitting some of them when I head out to the desert for Thanksgiving still haven't found the trading card tin.

yay for LA pony peeps!

Gawd i wish i was going with them, its been ages since traveling overseas and even more ages since being in the US.
yes yes yes i just thought of the FS shining armor set, how much is that, unfortunately iv either traded or bought of eBay most of the things that aren't available here, had i have known sooner i could of saved myself so much money.
i have to stalk tru and target online to see what they have just incase iv missed something.
what tshirt have they got, any pics on their sites?

[pallas]

Yes there is nothing better than seeing a fully stocked pony shelf  .
 
Yes the FS SA and Cadance is usually avail and around 22 or 24 i think. 

Also the new BB 3pk sets were there but in pretty small quantities, I got the famous friends but passed on the spa and diamond tiara set, they were gone by my next visit. 

The glimmer wing 2pks go in out of stock.

the shirt is a G1 Glory for 9.99 there is a thread somewhere here, it may have pics.  I have it, wear it and love it.

I am actually heading south to my bros so i'll check out the walmart in torrance thursday or friday.

hope your friends have a blast in LA

[shabbychicdee]

they will, they are a little younger then us, but no kids and lots of money so they will have lots of fun
oh oh i forgot about the 3pack bb, we haven't got wave 2 yet and they will be so much cheaper over there too
oh yes too how much are the exclusive train set, are they still in stores, our old ones are half price now and the carts down to a crazy $6nzd but i love the alternative colours of the new one

[hathorcat]

thank you

oh just had a thought. g4 bedding? is there any?

[pallas]

i've seen the fleece blankets in target but I haven't looked for them in a long time, again I think target website will be able to show if it's in stock. 

I just came back from the Crenshaw baldwin hills walmart and the pinkie pie bb big set was there, as well as  all 3 of 3pk BB sets and a few glimmer wings oh and a 12" plush don't remember which one.  No tins which is what I was looking for but a pretty decent pony section.

I think the train is 39.99 at TRU and is usually in stock. 

[shabbychicdee]

thanks hun for the heads up
oh what to do, there is so much to choose from, i wish you guys had the mirror and brush set, has it just been spotted in the uk?
just been browsing today, is tru more expensive then other shops?

[kezrob23]

i was thinking about this post just this morning, i found out that tru will ship international (of course i purchased some stuff lol) but thought maybe you could visit all the us shops in the area, add whatever items you wanted to shopping cart, and then screen print the cart to give to your friends. that way they will have a pic, description and price

[shabbychicdee]

i might have asked this before somewhere but does any one know how much the walmart flower power bb set is? was it $20 or $22?
