Not familiar with the product.
But, I was a fan of the I Don't Care Bears. A parody of the care bears. |

Build-A-Bear Event Hundreds were lined up today to get their kids a Bear ! In Malls all across the country! 1 dollar That's freaking sad. "Hey dad/mom! Remember that time we waited hours in line at the mall for the privilege to pay a company to provide them cheap labor for stuff?! Yayyyy! I now know what it's like to work in China as well as be CEO and take jobs from Chinese sweatshop kids! Thanks mom/dad!" I also find it funny when people praise self checkout at stores without realizing what they're actually subsidizing and contributing towards. |

self checkout at stores The local walmart has been remodeled. They changed 'everything' around. Store pickup has become a big thing. You order what you want and they get it together and you just come pick up the whole shebang. Groceries, electronics, hunting gear, whatever. They also removed a bunch of regular check-outs and installed row after row of self-checkouts. Before the remodel there were 16 registers with clerks, 5 speed lines for 12 items or less and 8 individual self-checkouts. Now there are 25 self checkouts at each end of the checkout zone and 6 cashiers (in the center of the zone) and no speed lines. Additionally, their in-store selection assortment has been drastically reduced. You have to preorder most items online now. As for the "I Don't Care Bears" I like the "Twisted Care Bears" better

Actually it was Advertised as Pay Your Age to build a bear the malls went nuts many stores were forced to close the lines. All due to the amount of people that showed up. Now they are offering a $15 voucher to those that ask for it..

Now they are offering a $15 voucher to those that ask for it.. Okay maybe it was a dollar per year of age. I seen a short clip of hundreds of people in line with kids. Anyway it is crazy what people will do to get somethings ! |

Build-A-Bear Event Hundreds were lined up today to get their kids a Bear ! In Malls all across the country! 1 dollar it wasn't a dollar a bear sale.... it was a bear for a dollar for every year of your child's age sale. but,still..... it went SERIOUSLY south for hem when they got such a huge response to their sale,that they voluntarily decided to have,and were unprepared for it. I have bought several build-a-bears for children,and as $15 gift certificate just doesn't come close to what they promised the people,cuz some of those bears can be close to $100. [some of whom had already stood in line for OVER AN HOUR before they shut it down,and quit letting people in.] i don't think that it is fair for the parents,OR to the children who had already been promised by their parents who had told their children that they could get a bear,cuz a child isn't going to understand about the logistics of business... they just want the bear that was promised to them. |
