TRU Faux Pas...and In Stock at Amazon!

Good evening, Zhu Zhu fiends!

Did anyone notice anything odd on TRU.com over the weekend? On Saturday morning, a TRU search on "zhu zhu" yielded zero results! We were wondering if maybe they were doing some site revamping, in preparation for the "Big Book" sale prices that were slated to start on Sunday. Well, when Sunday rolled around, the Zhu Zhu Pets stuff was back. AND, to boot, it said underneath the price, in pink letters, "ONLY $4.99 with any $50 Toysrus purchase!". My friend Lori saved a couple of screen-shots for proof:


Though, it was a short-lived promotion. Probably an error, I am supposing, because the wording has been replaced with "Exclusive Animal Alley [plush toy] ONLY $4.99 with purchase!" None of the Zhu Zhu items were in stock at the time anyway, so it didn't end up mattering. LOL

☺☺☺

Today, Amazon had Zhu Zhu items in stock... at RETAIL... for the first time that I have ever seen! NO TAX, FREE SHIPPING!! According to a Zoolert administrator, this is what/when items were listed on Amazon today, and how long they lasted:

Amazon Zhu Zhu Pets - Three Zhu Zhu Pets Hamsters -- $31.99 11-02-09 16:01 instock and last for 1 minute
Amazon Zhu Zhu Pets - Three Zhu Zhu Pets Hamsters -- $31.99 11-02-09 15:39 instock and last for 19 minutes
Amazon Zhu Zhu Pets - Three Zhu Zhu Pets Hamsters -- $31.99 11-02-09 15:34 instock and last for 1 minute

Amazon Zhu Zhu Pets - Funhouse Set with [Patches] Hamster -- $34.99 11-02-09 15:43 instock and last for 1 hour 29 minutes

Someone on the Zoolert forum confirmed that when they first noticed the funhouse/Patches set in stock, it said there were 900 available!! With a strict limit of 2, hopefully the wealth was spread out a little.

Please note: This was the more recently released Funhouse set with Patches, as opposed to the Patches starter set.
