, but I still have the 5 packs to pull it out of the dumps. At this point, I'd like to personally take Ms. Cowline to the W/Kinstyle shop and do a much needed makeover!!!

I LOVE the Samurai Hats!!! They are just too cute!

Awwww littledog, so sorry to hear about your winnings!

That's a major bummer! Maybe when you open the rest you will get all CC items and it will make it all better?!

I agree Ms. Cowaline needs a makeover!

We love the samurai hats, too! I wonder if there will be an outfit to go with it? My son is SO very happy about the helmet! We have extra accounts on the deluxe and will be sending the extra helmets to him so he can make a troop! Well, a small troop. LOL

I passed the final class on his style class today and when he went to pick the prize, he was horrified. He said: "that's it? It's all for GIRLS!!!" LOL He finally chose the mannequin because it looked like a big trophy. I guess I don't need to do this class for him any more. Thankfully he will get one diploma after his pet makes it through the other classes. Kids are so funny!

when you get those w-shop outfits.... compare them to what is actually in the w-shop...sometimes they slip kinzstyle pieces in.

Right now the whole Justice store is on sale through the 13th. You don't need any coupons. Generally the only thing they don't put on sale are the Nintendo items but everything else, including Webkinz, is 40% off. We might need a Justice run this week.

Thanks for the info on the clothes. I looked and sure enough the pants are kinzstyle!

You all are a font of information! Thank you.

Just took a trip to see Doug and none of my accounts were able to trade with him. My oldest son's account did have the W Diamond he was looking for but he said that he didn't have what he wanted.

Actually he had two of them!!

How exciting to finish a KA class! That's great. What persistence and skills you have. Those classes can get pretty hard...I am only at levels 4-5 and sometimes they get tricky!
I'd love to see a pix of your boy's army...I bet it will be cute (errr..I mean "manly man" looking). I hope an outfit comes next month too. I think the artwork for the helmet is just exquisite.

Same thing keeps happening to us. I feel so bad for the kids as they don't understand why and are getting very frustrated. For a site dedicated to kids, Ganz sure is teaching children early on that they can expect the world to disappont them. For me,

should be one of the places kids can go and always be happy. Its enough that we get sap glop & slag. I don't understand why they tailored the site that way instead of allowing kids to be joyful with it all the time. They get enough of the real world thrown at them every where else. This is one place they should have made 100% nice including taking care of the numerous glitches immediately. It would hurt no one and make a lot more folks happy, including the adults who keep Ganz in business. That's my take on it.

Ok rant over.

I totally agree! Doug is known as the lyin, cheatin dog in our home. My son has pretty much asked me to do just about everything on his account now because of all the glitches and when you call Ganz, they say that WW is being played mostly by adults now. But it's their fault that this is so! My youngest still wants to play but the glitches prevent him from doing so and the odds are ridiculous on the prizes and with certain prizes repeated in ridiculous amounts. It really is sad because they would be much more popular if they made it more kid friendly or just fixed the glithces! Now they made ww jr. and even with being new, there are tons of glitches with that website as well. I don't know how many parents would want to subject a child that young to so much disappointment. It's hard enough with the older children. Fortunately, the games my son likes still work so he will at least play those. But when he's done with that, I'm not sure how much longer we will continue as this started as something for us to share together.

Thanks LittleDog! It does take a lot of persistance especially with some of the glitches that cause you to fail even when you should have passed. The only class I have difficulty with is agility and my oldest son is kind enough to take the pets through level 10 for me. I tutor them up to that point. I will try to snap a picture of ds's army after we get them all transferred over.

little dog... it is just the trivial stuff that goes into the house upstairs... they haven't taken anything of any IMPORTANCE. (though those coupons COULD be important

)
sorry to hear about your box.... maybe they will give us a samurai outfit next month...then dress a webbie in it and let them pull their sword and shred the first cowoline skirt.... just for the heck of it...

truant officers are hunting for my white poodle frannie.
