Dont think there is much chance of getting one online just now. Have a look here at Martin Lewis' money saving forum Moneysaving expert (http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=2012421&highlight=hamster&page=648)

Good luck, you might get one locally :D

I requested Argos to e-mail me when they had more in stock - they did so on Saturday so if you get online now you might be able to allocate one for pick up!! Good luck...

A Go Go pet is a toy hamster, you can get all accessories like a cage and wheel same as for a real one. It seems to be this years 'must have' toy.
Thank goodness my lassie isn't wanting one - yet :eek::lol:

ive just tried John Lewis, Argos n the Brilliant Gift shop ( what a fab site!) but they are all sold out, Thanks for all your help though ill keep trying them :)
its a wee battery operated replica of a hamster and it shoots round a house that looks like a number 8 and you can put attachments on it like a car or a chute looks pretty fun ( specially if your 6 like my wee girl):)

Sometimes you wonder if the stress of getting the item is worth it!
Im thinking a real hamster would work out less expensive and more fun over its lifetime than the Go-Go hamsters at the moment:lol:
The toy ones and accessories are going for silly prices everywhere!
Christmas seems to be a cash cow for retailers and dealers and not about a special time for the bairns these days!

Hello from your local Toy/Gift shop,
I have had Go Go Hamsters in this week selling for £9.99 unfortunately they have now sold out but you are welcome to contact me on 0184793255 or pop into the shop (open late Thursday nights) and I can take your name and number if on the off chance that I get some more stock of them and their accessories.

I managed to blag a set from Wick Argos this morning, if you speak very nicely to the manager ( you have to get the manager) and ask her to take your details, she'll keep you a set. It's against their company policy but I'm sure she's a Mum as she was more than helpful and understood - going to put a box of chocs in to her later :) What an absolute star !!

Try telling this to your five year old on Christmas morning when they don't get from Santa what they've desperately asked for. Isn't it worth the effort just to see their little faces light up on christmas morning though ?
I have three kids, the oldest of whom doesn't 'believe' anymore and the middle one is swithering - it just isn't the same when they don't believe, the magic of 'santa' goes. They aren't little long, so make the most of the time that you have, you'll never get those memories back.

And before someone shoots me down for being materialistic and supporting consumerism, in the grander scheme of things with such important matters as world dead, poverty and global warming, it is nonsense but at the end of the day, they're my bairns and I want to do the best for them, so to them a 'go go hamster' is important when your five ! ;)

Amazon has loads of power miners this morning including the command rig which is hard to get, at very good prices.

There is always birthdays!
Lauren hasnt asked for anything for this year so Im lucky in that respect, but, many of the younger kids havent really got a clue what the latest toy/have to have it toy actually does or what it is about.
They have heard it being talked about in the playground thats all!
Im not going to be joining the race to get the must have toy any year soon and I dont actually think my kids will have any less of a christmas because of it!

Santa may not always have all the toys on your list but you will get at least one of them!
