The beach tote (with the towel and "suncreen") had the original tag still on it that said $8.50

What great deals for her! It just amazes me what things go for in price, though I have been guilty of paying for build a bear too, but none of my kids caught onto the craze.

MommyBliss and cookiemom -- Oh new Build a bear can be pricey ,your right.
We don't have one near us but Grandma's town does and she wanted to do the build a bear thing with the kids. She took us there (her treat) and let both children make an animal and bought each one a complete outfit - shirt, shorts, underwear, shoes, and sunglasses.
When the cashier gave the total I actually let out a gasp. Yes, out loud. I was so embarrassed.
The next year when we were in Grandma's town I did buy both kids a pair of Pj,s for their Build a bear.
Both Build a bears have been a favorite stuffed animal of both children. On top of the bed by day, in the bed at night favorite.
