Default TMX Elmo
Oh my! Can we say crazy?

I cannot immagine people paying over $300 on Ebay for a $39 doll for a toddler.

Can we say crazy materialism?

I bet people camped out at Walmart just to buy the doll so they could sell it on Ebay.

Can we say greed, pathetic, self-centered.......and those are the nice words.

Maybe there will be plenty for Christmas shopping?

reminds me of the cabbage patch doll craze of the early 90's.

I had 3 Cabage Patch dolls in like 1986 for Christmas. One was a preemie. I asked my mom what a preemie was and she told me it was a baby who was born before it was ready. I did not fully understand what a preemie was but I thought the doll was cute and small.

I wish I still did not know what a preemie was.

For some reason, I can't bring myself to buy my kids the new Cabage Patch dolls they have out. It seems so wierd.

Also what is the big deal about another tickle me elmo doll? Now if it was a doll that knew the kid's name, played with the child, and truly interacted, I would pay the big bucks for that because it would be COOL.

Have you seen the new Elmo? I would never have thought about Elmo or any other stuffed anything. All those years are past history..........but....I saw this Elmo on TV this morning and I laughed myself silly. That's all it does as far as I know......makes you laugh and laugh a lot. That's good for any one of any age. I hope you get a chance to see him work. You will crack up, you won't be able to help yourself. IMHO
