Lost: beloved toy in Worcester

Probably shouldn't be posting this here but we are getting desperate now!

My son lost his blue bunny (had since birth) in Sainsburys Blackpole Worcester. Am hoping that someone on here may recall seeing him or someone may have a replacement to sell (it's a plush blue bunny by Gap, discontinued about a year ago). Have exhausted all other options so not holding out much hope that this post will work but must try anyway!

    Have you tried posting on the Worcester News forum? or freecycle... or maybe putting an advert in sainsbury's?
  • Hi, have you tried searching for a replacement on ebay? Just an idea.

    Good luck
  • Hi Kimmi...sadly, no bunny here either, but just wanted to echo the ideas above.

    I lost DD's favourite toy (amid break up with ex, so bad bad timing!). After trying obvious lost property locations, we did posters with a photo and took them round to local charity shops (better than popping in we thought, as depends so much on who you speak to, and how many volunteers they have etc), and the grandparents wrote letters to the local paper (easier sometimes to get published than an article). I thought it was a stab in the dark, and it was...nobody came forward having spotted the bear. But...one little girl did get in touch through the paper to say she didnt have our bear, but had one almost exactly the same that wasnt a special one, and would DD like to have it? Four years on, the two girls are still penpals, writing to and from this bear! So...there is hope. Also, always worth a letter to GAP. You never know. Good luck!!!

    They seem to sell for lots of money on ebay.
