ukdebc Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 the webkinz pig and lil kinz pigs are both pink (at least ours are).I thought they were retired- but just checked and you can still get themlikehttp://samgoody-content.vcommerce.com/products/550/22944550/main-150.jpg you may be able to find it locally - but as it is not a recent one - I would call first - I know that some Hallmark stores carries them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anastacia Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Your niece is asking for the lil kinz pig. It retails for $9.99 at Hallmark stores. (The original Webkinz pig is the one that is retired.) The pig is pink and looks like a little piglet. The reason you are having trouble locating it is because it is the official "Pet of the Month" on the website. Once they register the pig, they will receive bonus items online for having the special pet of the month. I would advice you to look on ebay to get a feel for what you are actually searching for at the store. Look up Lil Kinz pig. Seeing as these are hard to find, you will probably have to go to a lesser known place that sells them to find it. These stores mark up the price a few dollars, but have less Webkinz traffic. (Limited Too, Cracker Barrel, Libby Lu, etc.) Even our local JC Penney's sells them! Good luck finding this. By the way, the reason I know so much about this item is because I am searching for one too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figarotigger Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 The Justice stores also carry the Webkinz(lil kinz), but are marked up to $12.95 and $13.95 depending on the store. I know because my niece got the pig as part of her birthday last month and I took her shopping at 2 Justice stores-the prices were different! She was upset that I wouldn't let her get it at those stores until we went to Hallmark and picked it up for $9.99-then it was all "how stupid those other people were to buy at the higher price when Hallmark was only 2 minutes further down the road." I'm TRYING to show her to shop right(sigh) Try calling the stores-most will hold one for you if you ask. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thistledown814 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 We have had good luck finding what we are looking for at Books-a-Million. They have always had a good selection. The Webkinz are usually on a rack at the front of the store near the registers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlesdcen Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Craker Barrel had a ton of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tntsmomie Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Our local teacher's store had a ton of them this morning, too. Definitely do a search on the Webkinz site and call the places listed in your area. Most are very good about helping/holding until you can get there. Good luck!

cathyt927 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 FYE also carried Webkinz around Christmas time. They may still have them. You can also try calling around to local gift shops. The Lil' Kinz Pig may be hard to find since that is the 'Pet of the Month'. I've got 3 kids who collect them, so I've become VERY well versed!
