    hi daisyflower he is after ripjaws and sixsix. i have had a look on ebay and they do have them at buy it nows for about £9.99 plus postage:eek: which makes me mad:mad: as they are 3.99 in the shops i just cant get these two. it is annoying when some adults find these toys and sell them for stupid prices knowing that if your child is desperate for it you will have to pay the price so they can have it for b day or xmas. will keep looking anyway x.:p

    According to my eldest we got ripjaws and sixsix recently in Tesco. We were hunting eveywhere for ghost freak (apparently theres 2 and we had the bad one but needed the good one!) anyhow we found what they were after in ELC (I hadn't even reaslied they were doing Ben10 stuff in store!).

    I've got both mine a Nintendo DS for christmas this year, got them a couple of weeks ago as i know they were selling out in alot of places last year. Other than that they're after Dr Who figurse and DVDs. Will probably get them a couple of Wall E bits for their stocking, especially if the DVD is out just before Christmas.

  • Has anyone heard of Gogo's Crazy Bones?

    My 5-year-old little girl is usually all glitter and rainbows, Barbie, dancing, fairies etc. but has suddenly got this thing about Gogo's Crazy Bones.

    Apparently the boys in the class above her play with them and they're little weird characters that you line up and play different games with.

    We ordered them on-line (Amazon) and they're bizarre to say the least, but all stores completely sold out locally. It's either a new craze or we're all really very strange round these parts. :D

    I didn't expect to get anything done today - and so far I haven't been disappointed. :whistle:

    Don't Worry moneyformummy we must be strange round these parts too, my 2 boys have loads of gogo's like you said they are wierd looking things but keep em quite for hours and at 99p for 3 in the shops I don't mind getting them a pack each when I see them.

    As for Xmas my eldest just wants DR WHO and Simpsons stuff and little one who's 4, well he wants one of everything in every shop we go in LOL.... :rotfl:

    My son got given a ffree go go's book at the local soft play area, since then he keeps talking about them and managed to find them on one of these little carts in the shopping centre and asked for them. I have no idea what they are or if they are worth the money!!!
