If you can afford it you should buy something decent with your money. This is a moneysaving website, not a waste money website!! You could sponsor a real-life horse/donkey in a horse/donkey sanctury and take them to visit it. Surely children should have what they want, if it's worth it... We had funky furby last year, quite scary when her/his/its beak was pulled off by toddler... Baby Annabell (we have 4) they are played with a lot, but on silent mode!!They are too annoying for the girls when they are playing!! Surely there is something else they will be thrilled with!!!
Good grief, I can't beleive I am even bothering with this!!! If people are even considering spending money on this, then they have far to much money to be worrying about money saving, and the comments are wasted.
Enjoy the moment and let us know how long it lasts!!! (I am sure now it will be their best toy forever and ever) But it will be very cheap after christmas.:starmod: I am not that savage :heartpuls But I am a Vixen :staradmin0 -
And I am not horrible, really, I spoil my kids, and they have too much, but for me this really is a step too far.:starmod: I am not that savage :heartpuls But I am a Vixen :staradmin0

Please go to a store and have a look first, ask to see it turned on.
The motor is very noisey and gets on your nerves very quickly. Also check you have enough room for it, it does take up alot of room.0 -

Though I can see your comments are your opinion, I don't think it is necessary to put people who want to buy one for their kids down as you did with this comment: If people are even considering spending money on this, then they have far to much money to be worrying about money saving, and the comments are wasted.

Hi there, I've bought my Daughter the parrot, a lot cheaper & smaller, I'm sure it will drive us nuts, but there we go.
They do have lots of other Furreal animals Monkeys Cats Lambs etc & they are much cheaper & you can carry them around with you unlike the Pony, which I must say I think is lovely, if you have the money & the room.
Or why not buy say the Cat & spend the rest of the money on real Riding Lessons? ( though that could work out more expensive in the end! )
Good luck with your decisionComping again - wins so far : 2 V festival tix, 2 NFL tix, 6 bottles of wine, personalised hand soap, Aussie miracle conditioner :beer:

Over £200 on an electronic pony is a waste oif money whoever you are, I am not putting anyone down, and realistically, if you can afford to spend that on an electronic pony, because your kids will have excited faces on christmas day, then you really don't need to worry about money saving!!!! That is not a put down, I wish I was that loaded. I have 5 kids, 4 little girls who would love butterscotch (aged2,4,5and6), they have seen the ads, but that would be over £1000. I love this site always someone eager to take offence.:starmod: I am not that savage :heartpuls But I am a Vixen :staradmin0 -
And she did ask for people info, and it is ok to feel outraged at the toy companies for designing a toy which children will love the look of but with a £300 rrp.:starmod: I am not that savage :heartpuls But I am a Vixen :staradmin0

I agree with you 100% on that....
I didn't take offence to what you said, my daughter is too young to have one. I was just pointing out how the comment was quite cutting.0 -
