Latest Adventures at Walmart
I Decided to go out last night around 12am to hit some Walmart stores, I thought for sure I would find at least one zhu zhu pet but no luck at all. Everyone at Walmart is well aware of the Zhu Zhu's and I couldn't get a direct answer from any employee or manager about when they will be arriving. The latest rumor I heard was that they will be holding onto Zhu Zhu's and selling them on Black Friday.
Walmart Stores Visited:
Crystal Lake, IL
Algonquin, IL
Huntley, IL
I did see something interesting last night in Crystal Lake. 3 Teenagers where walking around electronics with a baby carrying seat with a fake baby in it. It looked a little odd to me but I'm on a mission to find Zhu Zhu's so I need to focus on them. Anyway within minutes of me noticing them, 3 police officers where dispatched to Walmart to question these 3. Turns out Walmart thought they where shoplifting so they called the police, after I observed the whole scenario the kids where clean and where walking around with a fake baby for a school project. If you ask me I think there where looking for Zhu Zhu's and if they found more than 1 they where going to steal the rest.

Toys R Us online sales 5am - 7am CST
Rumor has it that Toys R Us online stocks Zhu Zhu pets during the week online from 5-7am Central standard time. The stock is very limited but I have heard of success stories from many hunters. I tried Thursday & Friday morning but no luck.
Toys R US Secret Members Only Sale 11/21 6 am
Looks like Toys R Us this morning had a secret sale for Zhu Zhu Pets this morning, the sale was for Toys R Us Rewards members only and the store opened one hour earlier at 6 am. I missed the sale but I heard the sale in Crystal Lake, IL had over 100 zhu zhu pets and accessories.

Zhu Zhu Pet Announcement
From Zhu Zhu:
Thank you for showing interest in our Zhu Zhu Pets! Unfortunately, we do not sell direct to consumer, but goods are arriving weekly at both Toys R Us and WalMart… and are now in Target stores. Other stores carrying Zhu Zhu Pets are: Meijer, Shopko, Duckwall, Blains, select Hallmark Gold Crown stores and other fine retailers. I am unable to tell you EXACTLY what stores have which toys, but I do know that there are shipments in route. Due to high demand, stores are having difficulty keeping Zhu Zhu Pets on the shelves. I recommend checking back with your local retailers frequently to see if they have Zhu Zhu Pets in stock.
We are aware of Ebay and amazon.com selling Zhu Zhu Pets for more than their suggested retail price. However, we can not prevent them from doing this, as they are third party sellers. Please know that we are not associated with these unauthorized re-sellers in anyway and can not influence their return policies. Do NOT overpay! The good news is the more product we ship to the retail shelves, the less value the product has on .com sites and the prices should correct themselves. Goods are being shipped. We have over 2 million hamsters on the way that will hit store shelves before Christmas. We do apologize for this inconvenience and fully understand your frustrations.
Let me know if I can be of further assistance and thank you for supporting Zhu Zhu Pets!

No luck at Walmart or Toys R Us
Well I went to Walmart last Saturday and the line was too long, no luck getting any.
Then on Sunday I went to the Toys R Us in Crystal Lake, IL and the line was out the door I didn't even attempt to stand it because there was at least 100 people in line before the doors opened.
I'm still on the hunt here and I heard a rumor that Walmart is keeping one box on each shipment to the stores and they are putting them aside for a big sale they are going to have the week of Christmas.

Update: 11/9/2009
So I must have hit 45 stores on Friday.. I figured since I have been abusing the Crystal Lake to Elgin area I thought I would try a different approach. Went from Deer Park > Arlington Heights > Rolling Meadows > Schaumburg > Bloomingdale and of course my favorite one of all the Walmart in Crystal Lake, IL.
Well I bet your wondering if I got one??? The answer is NO, I'm starting to think people are making these things up.
Here is a quick highlight from Fridays adventure
Toys R US - Schaumburg, IL
It was like any other Toys R us when I walked in but this one was going to be special. So I walk over by the aisle and there are no Zhu Zhu pet, a lady got there at the same time I did to find the same result. So I happen to look up and I notice 2 boxes with the company name that makes Zhu Zhu's. The hair on my arms stood up.. So right around the same time the lady next to me notices the same thing. Now the heat is on and we need to find us one of those qualified employees at Toys R Us to get these boxes down. So I grab Reggie (not sure that is his name but I would bet $10.00 his name was Reggie) anyway, he brings down the 2 boxes and I'm standing right next to him so if they are in the box I'm guaranteed to get one.... well .. no hammies, it was the play stuff, skateboard, surfboard, car, etc. So I grabbed them all (I had no plans of buying) but I wanted the lady next to me to suffer. The 2nd box was opened and the same thing. So I had all of these playsets and the lady ask me are you going to buy all those.. I said YEP!!!! .. the look on her face was priceless. So I turned to her with this I'm better than you look and said which one do you need? She replies "I'm really looking for the Car" I said that is great I have 10 of them and I'm holding on to them so kids don't get them for Christmas. Her face didn't change not one bit when I said that. So I gave her the skateboard one. She was pissed but I couldn't resist. Long story short, I took all the accessories and put them in different places throughout the store. I figured since I can't find the damn hamsters people aren't going to get those unless they search the store....Where's Waldo Baby?

Vidoes from my adventure 11/5/2009
Ok.. Here are some videos from our adventures on November 5, 2009
Getting Ready for the Adventure to Start
There is noting like getting up in the morning and paying $8.00 for a cup of coffee. We start our adventure with high hopes.
The Target With "LOD" the Famous "D"
I really hate going to this Target
Target - Crystal Lake, IL w / our friend "D"
Somebody Beat us to the Punch
Target Grey Dot Mystery?????
Watch out for the Grey dots on the shelf pricing.. I'm telling you in means something.. are they on back order?, are they arriving any minute? does that mean an employee like "D" has them reserved?
Meijer - Algonquin, IL
Why is that every time I go to Meijer that same damn cat toy meows at me..
Approaching Toys R US
Toys R US - Algonquin, IL
This is actually a nice toys r us but the employees are a little slow
Hamster Fun House has been located
We found this guy but since we are on the hunt for the hamsters we passed on it.
Walmart - Elgin, IL
This reminds me of a song.. "You Can't always get what you want"
Target - Elgin, IL
The Coffee has kicked in and I'm cruising through the aisles.
2 Hours In
We are heading Southbound Baby!!!
Walmart - East Dundee Part 1
This place scares me!!!I always feel like a minority walking through the place or maybe its because its TRUE
Walmart - East Dundee,IL Part2
I'm telling if this Walmart had a Taco Stand I would come here more often. If you ever have a chance to visit this store, please somebody tell me what that smell is? check out our Indian friends.. The whole family was barefoot.
Target East Dundee, IL
We survived, it is amazing the difference between this Target & the Walmart in East Dundee.. I guess that is what Michael Jackson meant when he wrote that song "Black and White"
Walmart - Elgin, IL
This has got to be the only Walmart I have scene that has a Liquor store right next door. You can cash your checks at Walmart, get some new socks and before you get back to your car you can pick up that mad dog 20/20.
Target - Elgin, IL
If you watch closely I do like ever seasoned vet does, I did a quick peek into the woman's cart to see if she had any Zhu Zhu's. For those new to the game of hunting, it is ok to push old people out of the way when searching for a Zhu Zhu's (trust me its in the rule book)
Target Posting
Make sure you pause the video so you can read what it says. I love how they say "Equal Chance" C'mon who are they kidding!
Meijer - South Elgin, IL
Just a mental note about Meijer... Use the entrance to the Left it is quicker :)
Listen closely as you can hear that stupid cat toy meow at me again...I will not be laughed at again like that.
Toys R US - Crystal Lake, IL
I know I wouldn't score the pets here. as I'm getting ready to walk in you will see the 50 year man driving the Jaguar. Now there is nothing wrong with see this but if you listen close you can see is bumping Christmas Music..BTW I have been to this Toys R Us so many times I swear the employees probably think I work there.
Walmart - Crystal Lake, IL First Attempt
Notice again how slick I am when it comes to approach, rookies go through the main doors.. I use the private entrance.
Walmart - Crystal Lake, IL 2nd Attempt
Ok 3 hours later I decide ok.. I'm going back for more. In this episode I expose the year old trick of hide and seek. Blankets are nice if only I could get a hamster to go in the! I thought well, if I don't get a hamster I could probably use the blankets as a substitute just in case I run out of toilet paper.

Hunter #4 - Target - Woodridge, IL
This just in from Zhu Zhu Hunter #4
"I was at the local Target in Woodridge, IL with a hot tip that Zhu Zhu's where in Town.
So Since I have trouble walking I used my scooter to move quickly to the aisle. I got to aisle and there was 1 Zhu Zhu left. It was me and another woman, she was quick and pushed me aside like I was an old piece of cheese. Needless to say the hunt is still on.

Phone call from Zhu Zhu Hunter #3
We got a phone call from our friend Zhu Zhu Hunter #3..
She went to Toys R US and no luck for Zhu Zhu's.. but a lady told her she was just at the Target in McHenry and she just bought 10 Zhu Zhu Hamsters...So our friend asks her if she could buy one from her.. Just one not trying to be greedy here.. So the lady has the nerve to tell her.. oh, if you want them go onto Ebay as I have about 100 listed.. WOW!!!!!

Target in South Elgin, IL
Interesting place...
So I stroll by the toy aisle to see if these little pests are on shelves.. ....................NOPE!!!
But I did happen to meet 3 nice hispanic women that where putting toys on the shelves.. so what the heck I ask the question... "Excuse me..Excuse me.. Do you happen to know if there are any Zhu Zhu's in those boxes" Amazing you would have thought atleast one of them could have spoken English so know they are on those cool Walkie Talkies.. "CODE RED" At least that is what I heard..
So in the meantime I don't know what is going on.. until a very nice woman who does speak English comes by. I asked the question again.. she laughs like HA I bought them all this morning.. Now I have already had a large cup of coffee at starbucks.. Sorry I'm not using the official coffee calling that starbucks likes to use.. Anyway I ask her and she said sorry we are all out of stock. So I charm up to her and ask her in a frantic attempt ... "Can you please open all those brown boxes over there to see if there happens to be any Zhu Zhu's"... Well she did open them all but NO Zhu Zhu's.. She was nice but a little slow......on to the next store.

Meijer - Algonquin, IL
I thought I would check Meijer... who shops here any way. It is a strange place maybe it is the employees or maybe because I'm so pissed that I can't find these damn Zhu Zhu pets.
So I walk by the toy aisle and nothing.. pretty little signs they say Zhu Zhu pets for sale but no luck. So I ask an employee ... lets call here Betty.. "Betty do you happen to know when you will get Zhu Zhu Pets in" .. you would have thought I was asking her for a bite of her gum.. She had no clue what I was talking about so she got on her nifty little walkie talkie (BTW .. I need one of these)
"CHARLIE !!! we have a couple her looking for Zhu Zhu's.. . Charlies says... "WE AINTS GOTS NONE" .. I guess that means they don't have available..
NO Luck at Meijer time to hit the next one..

Target in Crystal Lake, IL
Came back again because I saw a Fed Ex truck pull up.. I know I'm NUTS...
So I ran towards the Toy isle to camp out for 10 minutes... Target is a very nice store.. especially since they released Pearl Jam Backspacer.. there is nothing like listening to Got Some hundred times in one hour.. Anyway I camped out and tried to play nice with some employees.. you know the Hello, How are You,, Do you have any Damn Zhu Zhu's?? No answers.. except the same one they where taught to say .. " I Just work here and I don't know when we are going to get anymore.. oh but this morning a lady bought 10"
Waited a little while more .. no luck but they got Transformers for sale!!!!

As usually I got there around 10 am knowing damn well there aren't going to be any Zhu Zhu's but what the hell maybe I will get lucky..
NOTHING except bare shelves that now say " LIMIT 1 ZHU ZHU PER PERSON"...
Great they finally have listed because it used to be 2, now the Zhu Zhu bandits will have to get more troops out in the morning.. BTW they did have the Zhu Zhu Playset .. no hamsters though that is really what we are looking for.
Hightlight of the Trip: Watching the lurkers by the Toy isle... you know who you are... the ones that pretend like they are looking for something when instead you got your hawk eyes on the Zhu Zhu Isle...

Toys R US - Algonquin, IL
Wow stood outside for 30 minutes before the store opened with 20 other humps. I tell you it is a battle waiting for the doors to open, because when it does all hell breaks loose. Today was a good one I had Mr Karate chop and Susie homemaker chasing behind me as I made a mad dash for the Zhu Zhu pet isle. I had a good move today as I hit isle 3 and paused, just to see if anyone behind me would think the Zhu Zhu's where in Isle 3 (they are actually in isle 4).. anyway I hit isle 4 . and .. NO NO ZHU ZHU PETS..
Quote of the morning from the nice mother that was dragging here 1 year old kid on her shoe while chasing me down the Toys R US isle. This was great.. I can't believe she said this to me..
"You are lucky that there weren't any Zhu Zhu's on the shelf because I was going to trip you to get my hands on one"... WOW!!!!!

Ok I heard a trick you can use at Target to get Zhu Zhu pets, so the wife and I said ok what the hell lets try it.
So we went to the customer service desk and asked the lady there if we can get a rain check for the one and only Squiggles. The lady said they can't do that and I asked to speak to the manager in charge of the store (Well, I thought this would work but it didn't)
So this hefty woman name (D) comes up and says we don't provide rainchecks for Zhu Zhu's. I asked why not and she told me it is not the companies policy. I then asked is it the companies policy to have customer come in and Buy 20 or 30 Zhu Zhu's at a time, she said YES!!!! I expressed my feelings to here about how they should limit the Zhu Zhu's to one per customer.. she said we aren't Walmart>>Damn.. by the way if you are ever in Crystal Lake, IL stop by the Target and ask to speak to the manager on duty if it is (D), you are in luck because she is a winner!!!!!

How it Started - Damn you Zhu Zhu
Since August we have been trying to get Zhu Zhu pets for our daughter for Christmas and after visiting hundreds of Walmarts, Toys R Us & Targets we have become empty handed. We decided to write a blog about our experiences of trying to obtain a Zhu Zhu pet.
Now why is it we can find this damn toy??? Well I guess because all the toys are on Ebay, I have attempted to get this toy now for 2 months with no luck, I refuse to buy this toy on Ebay and pay a penny more than what it is in the store.
In the coming days we will be uploading videos and pictures of our experience, come back to visit us to see if we become successful in our journey. We will also be exposing the craziness of this toy hunting experience, including interviews, standing out front of stores, exposing the individuals that are buying up all these toys and my adventures of trying to obtain one.
In the meantime let the games begin and purchase a Zhu Zhu Hunter shirt.
