Breaking News: Unusual Tag found on some Webkinz Print E-mail

Ms.Webkinz, a member in our forum, has shared a very interesting discovery with us.  This week she purchased  a Lil Kinz Cocker Spaniel that had two tags.  In addition to the regular tag that comes with all Webkinz, there was also a red "Webkinz Cares" tag attached to the plushie. 

According to the tag, which comes with a feature code, some of the money made on the sale of the Webkinz goes toward the "Webkinz Foundation" which in turn donates money to the welfare, health, and safety of children.  The tag also says that the enclosed feature code is for a "Special Online Gift" in appreciation for the support.  It appears that the codes for these tags have not yet been programmed into the Webkinz system because  Ms.Webkinz has been getting an error message that says the "Feature Code does not exist". 

 

We don't yet know exactly what the "Webkinz Foundation" is, or what the "Special Online Gifts" are.  As soon as we are able to learn more of the details about this exciting promotion, we will report them to you.

I wonder what the new codes will give out.  
 
Could you tell that the extra tag was in there prior to opening the tag ****? Is it the same size as the usual one?

9. Foundation
I think it's great that Ganz is sharing with others, especially if it doesn't cost us more. That's part of being a responsible corporation. I would like to know more about the foundation though. I hope they get more information to us soon.

28. I Got One Too.
I got one of these tags on my Lil Kinz Elephant at Walgreens. Webkinz World said the **** was not valid. I wonder what you get? :? :? I want Ganz to put these tags on all of the Webkinz. I wonder if they will? :? :? :? :? :? :? My Lil Kinz Elephant got adopted so I wonder if they will have you adopt your pet then be able to enter the Webkinz Cares ****? :? :? :? I wonder if they are only on Lil Kinz? :? :? :? :? :? :?
