Okay, so I sent my hubby to Target today all the way in another state and all he found was 2 Tippys! I went to Kmart today and all they had was 1 Tippy and Pillow....where are they all?!? I am going to TRU someday this week...hopefully they will have more than last week!

I hope you find more!
I am having a difficult time as well. I have seen the same 3 Tippys at Walmart for weeks now. I almost want to buy them to rescue them, hahahaha!

Awesome! I had an epic battle with walmart to get them to check the back because they told me they had 15 boxes but turns out they only had the currently easy-to-find ones.
I was stupidly hoping they had a rare one in there.

Oh cool! It's been a challenge to find a Mittens around here.
Our TRU is sooo far away so I always have to call before we go but if there was one closer I'd be there every day, rofl.

I don't understand why Walmart doesn't stock better.
I asked one employee and they said they won't stock more until all of them have been purchased, which I can understand, but there's no way that rule applies to all products, obviously.
And why would people buy the remainder stock when it's all we see for weeks and weeks?

the biggest problem is they have the same code, stores are finding it very hard to order them in because they don't eqach have their own code. Their computer system is telling them they have x in store qand till they are sold they don't replenish. This is whats happening to my Mr Geeks store. They have had the same seven left over from the begining (3 peanut and 4 Bea) other stores have others, I saw a mittens, pillow and Jewel at kmart.

I feel like such a geek, whenever I go to the store I check their section, and even when I have the ones that are there, I *still* want to take them all home with me!!! I'm afraid they're going to end up being "triplets" soon, hahahha!

I went to Toys R Us yesterday and was SHOCKED! They had 9 different Lalas (Pillow, Crumbs, Mittens, Bea, Dot, Jewel, Twins (still packaged together), and Tippy). Of course none of the ones I need, but there were SEW many!!! I should've taken a picture lol.

hehe, I try to include the shelf price, it's amazing the price differeance between shop here and over where you guys are. I laugh when people say it's an expensive doll in the US, here it started retailing at $44, which is crazy for a doll, our monster high dolls are $29
