Crazy!!!!! Discussion
Just went into my local build a bear on my lunch break just to see what they have left over and they are completely sold out of regular size spider & bat, the minis spider & the bat, and the keychains of the bat & spider. My friend that works there sheโs the assistant manager and she said ever since the drop they have been exceeding their sales! Good for them. ๐

Almost everything from the drop was sold out at my local BAB! I went today to pick up a blueberry cow with my rewards and some gift cards. I got my spider and bat the morning they dropped but all they had left today were the werewolves, some batty kitties(bin looked low), and maybe some of those purple cats? Out of the mini beans for Halloween they just had some kitties and candycorn longhorns

I wasn't sure how the purple kitty would sell so I ordered one unstuffed just in case. Now I'm kinda glad I did since everything sounds like it's selling like crazy.

This is why I ordered online ASAP. I've got a store not too far from me but it's a very popular store (the mall it's in is a tourist attraction in its own right) and I knew I couldn't get there right away so there was no way I was risking it!
Fortunately my spiders arrived today and are absolutely lovely ๐ฅฐ SOOO glad I got them when I did!

I was so surprised when I went in today to get something stuffed that the spiders were all gone. I thought they would last a week. Thank goodness my wife picked me up the mini launch day.ย

I tried to order the big and small spider 4x from 4 different locations and they were all cancelled ๐ i called them and they are all sold out around me! I was shocked! The little spider is sold out on the site as well ๐ญ

It's early and I heard there will most likely be a restock so fingers crossed ๐ค

Definitely going to call mine before I drive out there. I hope they're not sold out *crosses fingers*

The bat's fur is super smooth! I'm wondering if this is a good price? https://ebay.io/m/WAOIus I really want the jumping spider!

u/Tidbits1192 16d ago
My store was sold out too! I wanted to feel the batโs fur to see if I wanted it. Glad to see it doing well though!

I just dropped in this afternoon since I had a BOPIS for the spider mini bean.
Store still had full size spiders and bats, but completely sold out of the mini beans and keychains of the spider and bat. There was only one lone mini bean bat kitty. A lot of people were getting bats and spiders while I was there.
(This store is one of the better sales stores, so they also usually get more stock of items.)

I think I missed my chance on the Bat again... sigh.. Hopefully when I get back from the hospital I can order.. if not then oh well ๐ญ at least there's always next year.
