Sort of an off question to ask here in central, but I want to get a big teddy bear for the lady, put a bottle of Baccardi, gift from Victoria's Secret and a "I will miss you letter" in it's arms for her before she leaves. I was thinking Toys R' Us or Wal-Mart? But with the stories I've been hearing about those places, being black Friday and all, I'd prefer to stay away from them. Any ideas?

 

pretty much everwhere should be crowded. probably not for much longer since it's approaching the late afternoon now.

if anything, build-a-bear, hallmark stores, kohl's, etc.

 

im going to the mall with my gf in a few hrs. If i spot a store with large bears, Ill let you know.

 

Build A Bear?

 

definitely build her a bear!!then you can customize it and dress it up and stuff. awww

 

I know Short Pump has one as our son always loves to go there, and I think Stoney Point.

... would be much more personable and she could take it with her in the car/dorm/wherever.

 

Sometimes Walgreens will have that jumbo sized stuff, like if your lucky you'll see one. Or CVS Pharmacy.

 

Thanks everyone. She's leaving 2AM tomorrow, got to have it tonight. I just found a pretty good sized one, not jumbo though, but good sized one at Toys R' Us. I ended up going to Regency Mall, Sears, Macy's, Babies R Us, Wal-mart, Target, KB Toys, even Victoria's Secret. Toys R's Us was pretty much it. It will have to do.

 

Where's she going?
