It's HOT HOT HOT! No, seriously, do not put it in the microwave.

Hello Play Favoriteers!

Have you heard about NeeDoh?

We regularly carry it at our store.
We regularly stock it.
Why?
Because it is a GOOD product!

The Nice Ice Baby (pictured above) is an exceptional variety that is durable and inexpensive - we sell it for $1.99.

For comparison: Amazon normally sells it for $2.99 (50% more expensive than your local toy store) and as of writing this they are selling it for $8.79 (+300% more!) and will deliver it to you March 29th at the earliest.

Please don't feed the scalpers.

When will we get our next shipment in?
It was supposed to be this week - but it's now expected to be at the end of the month.

At the moment - if you are subscribed to this newsletter you will be the first to know!

Now for the question on many people's minds:
Is this another Labubu

Is this another Labubu?

Pop culture trend: yes.
Scalpers: yes.
Will the product potentially destroy your holiday? No.

Like Labubu, NeeDoh has been around for a while. Also, like Labubu TikTok is what made it really take off.

Unlike Labubub, NeeDoh is NORMALLY inexpensive.

Finally, unlike Labubu, the craze appears to have been accidental...

Accidental? Are you serious?
This is one of the greatest marketing campaigns of all time! This product is HOT HOT HOT!

Yes... but again also no.

Schylling, maker of NeeDoh is very happy to currently be profiting off of their exceptional product without doing any advertising.

Why?

1.) They made a great product that sells itself. We kept floor samples out for a reason!
2.) They had a proper warning label on the product: Do NOT heat or microwave, may cause personal injury.

Hot Hot Hot is right - a month ago 4 kids in the Chicago area wound up in the ER due to burn AFTER NUKING IT.

Why? They heard about it on social media.

And here we are talking about it on social media

It's not all bad, for sure. Certainly doesn't mean it's all good.

It has it's place - we are plugged in now, and that's something that we all will likely forever deal with.

But it makes a great lead in as to why we need to take the time to 'touch grass'. Of course, common sense isn't all that common - accidents happen, but take the time to teach your kids about the basics - common sense safety will get them a long way in life. There's a reason Healthy is at the start of "Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise"

If I'm ever on life support, unplug me...
Then plug me back in. See if that works.

I just woke up with my reading lamp unplugged and lying next to me in bed.
You never know what to expect from your one night stand.

I had a job interview where the interviewer slid his laptop across the table and said "sell this too me."
I closed the screen, unplugged it, and left.
I ignored his calls for a few hours before answering.
"where is my laptop?" he asked.
"You wanna buy it?"
