A "Glitter Ball" to be specific.
These balls cost $8 at Wal-Mart and little girls all over the state are going crazy about them. I didn't worry about it because my thoughts were, "What parent is going to pay $8 for a ball"? (Except me, of course!)
I guess plenty, because they are SOLD-OUT at every Wal-Mart! It has become a quest for me now. I found one at this site for $12, but I am not sure I want to pay that plus shipping. And so I am asking for your help. First, what is the fascination all about? Its a BALL for heavens sake. (I guess I didn't understand the Tickle-Me-Elmo craze either, though). Second, does anyone know where I might be able to find one? Someone suggested Wal-Greens, but I haven't checked it out yet. Third, am I insane for giving into this?

Hey girly! I saw that Brooke had a link to your bloggity blog and had to check it out :) If you want I will check the WalMart up here and see if they have them. I am coming back down a week from Friday and could bring one then if they do. Let me know. Oh, and cute blog by the way!
hahaha! Chase,Carter and I were at walmart and i saw several of these with the balls. I laughed and joked how it was a perfect medicine ball for a toddler. Those suckers are HEAVY. :) I had no idea that they were so popular. They have several at our walmart here in ABQ and I was almost positive it said they were only $2. If you want me to snag you one I can. We will be in St. George the first week in June. :)
