homes Years ago, my Mother asked me what I wanted for my birthday. I told her I wanted another Ginny doll. She said, “But dear, you’ve already got several Ginny dolls. You don’t need another one.” End of story: I didn’t get another Ginny doll for my birthday. I don’t remember now what I got but I do remember that I didn’t get what I wanted.

At 7 dollars a pop and with the addition of a few well chosen hamster accessories, I was convinced I could better her friend’s Zhu Zhu hamster plush setup for much less than 100 bucks.

Popping down to my local Wal-mart and Toys r Us turned up only sold out replies. Not the best response when your daughter’s birthday is quickly approaching. I must have driven to every possible toy outlet in the local area for the rest of the afternoon, but everywhere was the same story…no stock…sorry.

Back home and I hit the parent’s haven for all things kids related…the internet. They say that the internet is the largest shopping place in the world and sells everything and usually cheaper than the stores…THEY obviously never tried to buy a Mr Squiggles! All my favorite online stores had basically sold out, but there was stock available from people that had bought up the limited Zhu Zhu Pets hamsters and hamster accessories and were selling them at, what I would call, outrageously stupid prices. No way. Not me. Not again. Mr Squiggles and his hamster house will just have to wait.

1. Get them what they want if you can afford it and it doesn’t contradict your values. Make sure your kids know which toys are off limits because of your family values.
2. Get them what they want even when they have lots of that toy.
3. Get them what they want even if you think the toy is silly or ugly.
4. Don’t give them everything they want-that’s called over-indulgence. Find out what they want most. What they want least.

Today was going to be my hamster success day. I hit the phone early, phoning every Walmart and Toys r Us and then every other toy sounding store in the area. Nothing. I increased my target area and extended from immediately local area to, well anywhere. I found a store that had a Mr Squiggles and a Pipsqueak. The only problem, the store was 43 miles away. My toy insanity had kicked in at this point and I only had three days left till B-day. I drove and drove and drove, eventually found the store and….they had already sold them, they couldn’t keep them aside for me any longer. My response to them doesn’t need to be repeated.
