phlat ball?

My son has been going on about a phlat ball for ages now & with his birthday coming up (not til nov) I've been debating getting him one.
Does anyone have one? Are they worth the money? good fun or played with & left in the back of the cupboard?
Any ideas on the cheapest place to get them?
All input apprecited.
hugs
Helen

    comes in different sizes but cheapest was jjb believe it or not. £4.99 and the same size was £6.99 everywhere else. can get bigger ones but the small ones are easier to catch imo. good clean childish fun (im an adult :o )

    My 2 son's love theirs, even the 3 yr old - he thinks it's hilarious when it pops!!! :rotfl: Doesn't stay unpopped for long though unless any mse'ers know any secrets to making it stay unpopped?! :confused:
    Try Argos , they recently had the large ENGLAND phlatball on offer for £4.99 , normally £9.99 which was cheaper than most shops for a large size. :beer: Hope you manage to get one.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    We had one once (got it from Play) but it got run over by a car (honest!) so it really is a FLAT ball (and no longer works properly...)
    That's Numberwang!
