Uggggggggggggggggggggggggh. I have never done Black Friday anything before except when I worked at TRU and had to. But I want this. Why, Moose, why? That's just not cool.

I hope so, but I honestly don't know anything about Black Friday sales. I always avoided them before, because I didn't want the chaos, and now I avoid them even more, because they take people away from their families on Thanksgiving. I don't know if the sales are also offered online or not, but I really, really hope so. I don't want to go to the store and fight through a bunch of people, but I also don't want to overpay on ebay from the scalpers that will buy all the dolls they see just to put them up for auction.

Thankfully in my state stores can't open on Thanksgiving. I've been doing the black Friday thing for years and really the only problem I've ever had is waiting in the long lines outside. One year because they couldn't open on Thanksgiving Walmart had shifted all the door busters (including MH) to Friday and there was also a 30 percent off sale on MH Friday so I got 13 Wishes and Scaris dolls for 3 bucks and some change. As for the scalpers I hope they put limits. |

www.walmart.com/ip/52909509Here's the page for her. The Black Friday ad says deals are all day Thursday online, but the store doesn't open til 6 (mine anyway), so I'm hoping I can just snatch one up online.

My daughter really wants her but there's no way I'm missing our Thanksgiving dinner w/ family to try to get a doll! The black friday flyer I saw said 'in-store' which totally sucks. I'm 99% sure it said limit 1 per customer so at least that's something...
If you look on Ebay you can already see people bidding for her but shipment is after Christmas so maybe they'll have a wider release later? No idea how that's working...

I'm thinking she might be for Black Friday release with a special $20 price, then she'll be for sale after with a $24 price. When I first saw the listing on Walmart.com, the price was $24 and now it's $20. I'm hoping she pops up online on Thanksgiving. There's no point in having a listing for her if she isn't going to be sold online, so that gives me hope.

Heh, I was just coming here to say the same thing. I ordered two for store pick up and she'll actually arrive before Thanksgiving.

Oh, boy, now the link says they're "having technical difficulties." I wonder if they realized she wasn't supposed to be posted this early.

Sigh... has anyone's order gotten out of the "processing" stage?

Mine has a green check over "shipped" and when I click "track items," it says "Package data transmitted to FedEx." I think that's a good sign? I hope everyone's ships. I read on the Shopkins Facebook page that she's supposed to go up at 12:01am next Thursday. They didn't clarify which time zone, but I'll definitely be stalking the listing if my dolls don't ship. Which gems is everyone hoping to get? I had thought all the dolls had the ruby and sapphire showing with the others as blind bags, but Wardah showed me one that was the ruby and diamond showing. I ordered two dolls, so I hope I get one of each, but I really want the sapphire! I'm a September baby.  |

I ordered two dolls, so I hope I get one of each, but I really want the sapphire! I'm a September baby. Mine has the green check mark over "shipped" now, too! It's not letting me click through and get tracking info though, so not sure what's actually going on there. Still hoping for the best! We will probably still go out on Black Friday shopping, so this doll is kind of an "insurance" doll just in case we miss out on getting her. We really want to be able to pick which Shopkins set we want, and also make sure we get a good quality face on the doll. So if we find one we like more when we're out on Black Friday, we can always exchange the one we get online. But on the flip side of that... if for some reason, we don't make it out to get one, we at least have her! We are leaning towards getting the set with the sapphire also! |

Mine are now in Memphis, TN, so I hope everyone who ordered gets theirs, too.

I picked her up today from Walmart. I was surprised at how many were on the shelf! Normally the "limited edition" stuff from any line doesn't last.
