Hi everyone, my DS 6 is obsessed with this toy he saw on a commercial and I can't seem to find it at the stores I've checked in Toronto (Toys R Us, Walmart). I've seen it on ebay, but prices w shipping are high! Has anyone seen the Fur Real Cuddle Chimp anywhere? Thanks, Jo
 
You Ain't Gonna Like What I have to Tell Ya!

If you really want to get him, you will have to fly down to New York, New York!

According to Hasbro, they are only conducting a "Test Market" for the cute little critter!

I asked her then, why have a commercial, especially before Christmas! :confused3

She just said she would mark down my complaint!LOL

Sorry, this time Santa's Helper couldn't help.

ToysRUs in New York is also out of them.

If you want it, then Ebay it is!
 
Janet - thanks for your response! I also agree that its pretty rotten to have a commercial for all to see but its only being sold in test market! I'll have to deflect his attention elsewhere...wonder if he'd understand that Santa only makes product for test markets?!!
 
I was looking for one for my daughter as well and could not find them. Then I came across a whole skid of them sitting in the middle of the aisle in the WalMart in St. Thomas, Ontario - $39.99.

Hope this helps. This was last Sat. and they did not seem to be moving too fast so there may be some left............
 

Wow, wish I was near St. Thomas! I have some contacts in Wal-Mart...I think I'll phone to see if they are getting them in or if this was just a fluke!? Thanks
 
I was just in the store this evening around 7:00 pm and they still had about 20 left....................
 
VICTORY! I found the Cuddle Chimp...only one on the shelf at WalMart in Richmond Hill. I saw the box on the bottom shelf and just zeroed in and I think I jumped in front of two ladies who were just standing in the section chatting :)

When I got home my husband said, "are you sure you want to give it to him....they are going for over $100 on ebay!!" Oh they things we do for our kids!
 
Ooh I think my 19 year old daughter would like one of those!!! If anyone sees any in the TO area please let me know!!!

I checked in Walmart in Oakville and Burlington and they didn't have any.
 
I'm going to be near the one on Islington just north of the 401 tonight. I will check in there and report back. Did you want one too, Janet?
 
No Thanks!

I was just checking for everybody else!

Plus I bought one off of Ebay as a joke for DD!

She's always wanted a Brother or Sister! :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

The people I bought from were willing to ship directly to the GC!

So our New Addition to our Family will be waiting for us when we arrive! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Me Bad!

WHAT!

:faint: :faint: :faint:

Boy I got a Bargoon!

Do I really need another Mouth to feed? :rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Only problem is, I would want to keep the chimp at this stage of the game! :rotfl: :rotfl: It won't talk back!

It's gotten amazing reviews. Now, of course, I will never find one! And things were going so smoothly this Christmas. I think I will head out to the Etobicoke Walmart and Milton Walmart and Winston Churchill Walmart sometime today. Thank goodness the snow has stopped!

I wonder if the St. Thomas store still has any?

If anyone sees one ANYWHERE, would you please let me know. Thanks!
 
Found one!!! In Flin Flon, Manitoba. It pays to have relatives in strange cities!
 
Wow - they must be shipping these to obscure, random places. I was talking to another mother at the skating rink today about the Chimp and she said she saw them at the Richmond Hill Wal-mart a couple of weeks ago and I told her that's where I found the single one left last week. It's like they ship a pallet of these to a couple of stores and let the fun begin! Damo - glad you found yours! Enjoy
