Santa needs a bit of help

    Hi all ! - A friend of mine has informed me that Santa needs a bit of help sourcing a particular toy - it's the Fur Real Lulu Cuddlin Kitten as seen here

    Of course Santa has enough for all the boys and girls who were early enough with their letters so no child reading this should be worried ! but someone forgot to post this letter and now Santa does not want to disappoint the little girl who is looking for it.

    Apparently Smyths and Argos etc are out of stock and will be until the new year, a search online has proved fruitless too other than a rather extortionate trader on Amazon. If anyone has seen these or has a spare one around I could pass the details on to somebody who desperately needs them.

    Thanks in advance.

    has santa checked the smyths stores up the north. on their website a search says a few of them (ballymena, bangor and strand road derry) it says low stock they think the have them but not 100% sure.

    Blanchardstown said this earlier but had no stock. Fonthill also appeared as being in stock earlier this evening but als turned out to have none. It seems the stock system is not that accurate :(

    thanks maryjane07 - I have passed that on. He is going to ring them in the morning to see if stock is available and if they ship to Ireland. They have a flat postal rate on the site so I suspect it's a UK delivery only but you never know :)

    was the link provided - they don't actually have stock nor could they deliver to Ireland.

    Last update I got was that Hamleys in Dundrum may have some coming in on a delivery on Wed afternoon. Then again Smyths also said the same in two branches yesterday but apparently their allocation is now fully sold out too.

    Excellent news from Santa today - one of the elusive creatures was found in Galway of all places and has been sent by express post to the north pole. Thanks to all who sent advice.

    Hi There,

    Where did you manage to get this toy in the end - we are now in same position - we thought we had one but dont.

    Panic is setting in.

    Thanks

    joxers

    Sorry joxers125 but I don't know exactly where it was found - it was a friend of a friend of a cousin who got it. We had a wide network out looking for it. I believe it had just been returned by somebody who had accidently ended up with two so I'm afraid even if I did know where exactly it probably would not have been any good.

    Will put out the word again and if anyone comes across one will get you a pm.

    Hi Pageant Messiah,

    Try and tell the child that you could not find the toy. Get them something else instead and I'm sure they will soon forget about it.

    Thanks for that but thankfully one was sourced. :)
