Zhu Zhu accessories Chicago

[irish dancer]

Anyone in the Chicago area know where I could find some Zhu Zhu accessories?? Ideally somewhere in the western burbs. Got 3 of the pets but no accessories...... Been to 3 different TRUs and nothing.

Help!

I jsut looked at the TRU website. the yahve the fun house and the speed boat in stock, with expited shipping you could get them by Christmas eve.
Someone also told me to ask at your local CVS as they keep them behind the counter, but we don't have any CVS's around here.

OP - I'm in the western burbs too and the only thing I have found is the blanket / bed and the carrier / bed at a CVS in Lombard.

I went to CVS' website and just started calling stores around me to see what they have.

I haven't had much luck either, although, I haven't checked anywhere except CVS.

Check out craigslist. Some people are selling accessories pretty close to what you'd pay in the store.

Good luck!

I'll let you know if I find anything.

Thanks! I saw that but it's $15 for expedited shipping and I just can't bring myself to pay that for a piece of plastic.

Thanks! I've been to the CVS in Elmhurst every couple of days and haven't found a thing. Walmart shows the house In Stock but they've never had it. They did tell me they're getting stock daily and to be at the store at 6am for opening to get in line. So not happening! I guess I'll check out Craigslist.

I think I must live really close to you I got all of my accessories at Walmart - but I went to the store every morning (they get truck every night). I would drop my kids at school, then drive to the Walmart on North Avenue (Northlake), and then the one on 83rd/Kingery (Is that Lombard?).

I did this a couple of months ago - but I got all that I needed... Toys R Us has been having them, too. Get on their e-mail list - and they've been e-mailing at various times to say, "Come it at midnight" or "Come at 6:00am" and the first 50 people can buy one.

Good Luck!

I live in chicago and got my funhouse from TRU at burbank (not in stock today when I was there) and the hamster wheel, slide and car/garage from CVS. I saw the cvs at 63th/pulaski has one slide left today and I returned the 2nd hamster wheel I have to the CVS at 87th/pulaski. Because I worked at the south side, I keep checking the CVS there and sometimes got lucky. Most the downtown cvs stores I called did not have them in stock.

I live right by the Walmart on Rte 83/Kingery - howdy neighbor!! I guess I'll take a run over there in the morning but it won't be at 6am! I'm thinking these things will be readily available after Christmas so if I don't get an accessory before then I guess she can use some of the $$ she's getting from her Grandma to get something.

I actually have some of the accessories I want to get rid of. I bought them at CVS for a friend. I happened to see them and knew she was looking for them so I picked them up. She wound up finding them herself. I was just going to return them to CVS. I am in Roselle so not too far from you.

I don't know how to send you my email address or anything. Haven't been on disboards in awhile to know if there's a personal message.

I'd sell them for what I paid if you want them. I have the hamstermobile, the slide and wheel. All brand new. Paid about $20 with tax for each at CVS.
