Last year around this time, I noticed Costco was selling giant 53" teddy bears for around $25. I really wanted to buy one for each of my kids (now ages 4 and 7), but I thought my husband would kill me, and it was just the inner kid in me wanting one for myself. ;-) So I didn't get them, and I've regretted it ever since.
Now I've noticed they have them in stores again for $29! There's a dark brown and a light brown. I immediately grabbed one and started to put it in my cart, and realized it's so big, I don't think I could fit two bears without having to make two trips the the car! I don't even know how I'd hide them until Christmas. So I passed ... again. =-(
Does anyone have one of these, or know of anyone that does, and what are your thoughts? What do kids do with them after the novelty wears off? I'm thinking my kids can snuggle with them in the attic when they watch movies instead of sitting on beanbags, which was our original idea ... but maybe that's wishful thinking?
ETA: They even have a facebook page!
