I was in Toys-R-Us yesterday for the first time in the 2005 Holiday Season. One of the first things I saw being promoted was the 80th Anniversary Pooh Doll from Fisher-Price and it looks like its going to be a hot product this year. Winnie the Pooh first appeared in The London Evening News on Christmas Eve 1925. Since then he’s become one of the most popular characters in the history of children’s literature.
The 80th Anniversary Pooh is $29.99 in stores, but you can get it for only $6.99 when you purchase $50 or more of toy or video game products from Toysrus.com or Imaginarium.com through Amazon.com. All you have to do is add the qualifying products to your shopping cart, including the Pooh doll, and enter the promotional code RTYBGBKTRUAA at checkout.
This Pooh Bear is machine washable and has a commemorative 80th anniversary insignia on his left rear paw.
My wife Kathleen loves Winnie the Pooh and we have quite a few Pooh products around the house. I’d be really surprised if this Pooh Bear doesn’t come to our place this December.
