    Build-a-Bear's one day sale was so successful it was shut down — in some places, just hours after it began.https://usat.ly/2L6PVkp

        EXACTLY what I said. I'm no marketing expert, but I saw that coming.

        Your kid got disappointed by a corporation being sleazy and not delivering on it's promises and you are livid? It may be time to take out the old priority list and do some triage. It was a good life lesson for your kid if nothing else.

        When you cause more kids to cry tears of sadness rather than tears of joy because they are told the line is too long I think you're doing it wrong @buildabear #marketingfail

        Believe it not there are parents that literally cannot afford 20-30 dollars a bear because both parents work slightly above min wage . This may be the only way to ever get one. Least there's a life lesson for kids: You're poor=you're screwed.
