When I came home from work today, I found this on the kitchen counter.
Too bad that Mommy Claus hasn’t gotten a swimming puppy! I actually had one in my cart at Target last weekend, but I put it back because I didn’t think there was any way she actually wanted this thing.
I mean, look at it.
Looks fascinating, right?
So as I sat down at the computer tonight, I went looked for this thing and found it on ToysRUs.com. Of course, I looked at the user reviews.
Let’s just say that the swimming puppy doesn’t seem to be much of a hit with the moms and dads who’ve written the reviews.
In fact, here’s the first one I read:
“Should be called fall over and float while the legs move back and forth for 2 minutes until water creeps into the battery compartment and goes into the trash puppy.”
Needless to say, I am NOT thrilled by the thought of sinking (haha) $29.99 into it.
But, scroll up and look at that sweet letter to Santa.
So I ask you, what is a person to do in this situation? I am in a true quandary, and time is ticking away.
If any of you are proud owners of a Rescue Pets Swim to Me Puppy and would like to talk me into purchasing it, I am all scary eyes ears.
