The first thing I did was call the Toys R Us in Times Square, which proved pointless.  All of their employees are too busy pushing tickets to the indoor Ferris Wheel with a priceless view of the diaper department to answer the phone.

I really didn't want to go there.  Times Square is a very cool place if you go once.  Times Square is not as cool when that is where your Toys R Us is.  Most people don't have to turn down double-decker bus rides and leap frog over Canadians drunk on electricity to buy a Barbie.

So before riding 2 subways and a bus to electric lady land I thought I would just try the local overpriced toy store that people don't really shop at.  I think every town has one of these.  Our store is called The Toy Zone at State News and is located on 86th st. on the Upper East Side between Lex and Park.

The shop owner proudly directed me to a mega display of ZhuZhu wonder.  He told me the individual hamsters sold out the first day, but for 39.99 I could buy a play house & track set that comes with a hamster in the box.  This seemed like a lot, especially when PetSmart is across the street and I could probably get the same cat toy for 12.99, but being a good Auntie I bought it. 

I had him double bag it so I wouldn't be thumped by a hamster crazed tourist in Times Square and jumped on the train.

At Toys R Us, I disappointed the staff by turning down a ticket to the big wheel and asked where the Zhu Zhus were.  They pointed to a bank of registers where under the protection of Geoffrey's soldiers was a pile of hamster robots 40 high. 

They have every flavor of hamster as well as the he gigantic play set that was selling on Ebay for nearly $300.

The bummer part, I waited in line for 40 minutes to get my kids one of the $10 hamsters.  The awesome part, I didn't pay $30 for my roborat.
