The Official Webkinz Thread!!

[2bemarried]

Count me in as a Webkinz addict. If I could I would be wearing a brown paper bag over my head so no one would recognize me!! After all, I',m a great-gramma and really have no good excuse. Although it is great fun to send things to my grandchildren and to have them sent treats back to me.

I have my own account (monkey named Jack Ryan and black cat named Chelsea Joseph) but I also take foster care of two granddaughters accounts for a little while as their mother doesn't have the time right now and the girls are too young to do it without assistance. It's a little like raising my four again (without the arguments). And of course, no one paid me to take care of them. I got the Crown of Wonder for one of the girls the other evening. My DH thought I had truly lost my mind.

A grandson started his account this afternoon and just called me a little while ago to announce that he had won a trophy on Cash Cow already. Now does that seem fair. It's his first day!! I have been playing for months now.

I think it's sweet that you have your account and do foster care for your great grandkids!
I'm also envious that your grandson won a cash cow trophy on day one! It took me at least a month to win my first one and then three more weeks for the second. The trick is to keep letting one color build up and getting right at 100 points by clicking on that one color.

I want a penguin. I never saw a reindeer, are they fun? I might like a kangaroo. I would like a Basset Hound too, and dh has a bulldog that if he doesn't adopt soon, I'm gonna. Hmmm...........maybe I am on my way to that 63 after all.

Now you're talkin'!!!! It's good to have goals!

My name is Linda and I am a Webkinz addict. (everyone says "hello, Linda"). I only have two animals, an alley cat named Cynthia and a yellow lab named Santana (they wouldn't let me name it Buttercup since there was a word in the name that's not allowed ). I pretty much ignore my animals, but I love the daily events and games.

Okay my son thinks I'm nuts (He's a teenager). I just took all 5 of mine to the bathroom and gave them a bath Then I put them all to bed in their own rooms in their own beds.

Wow 100K! I can't stay out of the W Shop long enough to get anything like that! I love solataire too but wish they had a regular or spider one too.

10K for the bowling lanes, WOW! I think I have just a little over $2,000. What can you do in the in home bowling lanes? Is it any different from playing in the clubhouse?

 

[KyraS]

Oh Paige the love puppy! I want one so badly but my goodness have you seen the prices!!!!!!!!!

No, but I saw you post about it while ago. That's ridiculous. It'll be like beanie babies, people go nuts and the prices are through the roof, and then it'll be all over.

 

[KyraS]

Yep your right, I have two boxes of Beanie Babies and some Disney ones and you can't even get a dollar for them.

I know, I bought my son some in perfect shape at a garage sale for 50 cents, he just likes little animals.........I got him a bat and a squirrel.

Hi my name is Gina and Im also addicted to webkinz. My DD is 12. She has a total of 10 now. Most she got for christmas. It was a Webkinz themed christmas. She got like 5 webkinz, a whole BOX of the trading cards, charm braclet and 3 charms, and the lip gloss! lol.

At first I started to play on webkinz just to help my DD earn $. Then I started to ask if i could do her daily activities. lol.

I just had ankle surgery on friday. I'm not allowed to walk for 4-6 weeks. She got me the seal for christmas. This way we can play together. I made the seal a boy and named him Icy! lol

The first one is my fav since it tells you when good stuff will be at the curio shop and what the daily activities are for the next few days. But my kids like the recipes ones since they love cooking on webkinz.

Hey thanks!! I am having a hard time finding the last few gems I need on both of our accounts here I know which mines to look in, but still not finding the right ones

 

[PlutosFriend]

But have you seen the new ones coming out in February?????


http://www.webkinzinsider.com/index...s-5-new-webkinz-for-february-retirements.html

Oh for cute!!! I better not show those to my dd just yet But then again, they could make for cute valentine's gifts!

 

[PlutosFriend]

Don't forget the weekly survey - you get $50 for that.

Oh wow, something I don't know about? How did I miss this?!

 

[PlutosFriend]

I play under DD's ID but the fairies left a raccoon in my stocking so I'm getting my own acct at some point after vacation.

I won't share DD's ID, but wouldn't hesitate to share mine when it gets set up. Then we could do supermodelz and chef challenges amongst each other. Would anyone be up for that? Not like we have anything better to do.

Today I picked up the love frog for DD for Valentine's day. <-he matches the smiley

Sure! How about a game of Cash Cow??

 

[PlutosFriend]

My daughter has 63 webkinz! I am on there more than she is though-she likes collecting the actual animals. We have a house with over 50 rooms and 2 full rooms of gardens, I harvest the crops and then sell them all to make money. Right now we have 90,000 in kinz cash saved up!

All I can say is WOW! I thought we had a lot of them! My dd has around 25.

 

[PlutosFriend]

So who's earned the crown of wonder yet? Since getting it I've not returned to the mines. I need to start doing that again.

I am one gem away on one account, and 3 on the other.

I'm a Webkinz addict too I'm not as bad as I used to be--now I just do my daily activities--gardening (I grow to sell), Gem Hunt, Wheel of Wow, and Wishing Well. If I have time, I play in the Arcade--I love Home Before Dark and Zingoz Pop.

I finished my first Crown of Wonder last week and I have almost enough for a second. I priced it out in the W Shop--you can sell them for 2250 KinzCash Once I have two, I'll probably sell one. Right now I have 74,000 KinzCash though so there is no rush

For those who have had problem logging in, there is a message on the homepage today. Click on the yellow banner and it gives you more info. People who have had major account issues are being compensated apparently, with KinzCash and an extra month of membership. DS hasn't been able to log any new pets on since Christmas, but DD and I have. We tried again this morning and he still can't.
