"Chocolate Moose" stuffed animal

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

My girlfriend’s former roommate’s boyfriend (which makes us absolutely nothing) got his girlfriend (my girlfriends former roomate - are you following me?) the lamest Valentine’s day gift ever last year. It was obviously a last minute gift that he got next to the counter at Wal-Mart of CVS or Walgreens or some such place. It was a big brown stuffed moose that said “Chocolate Moose” on it.

It was so lame that we laughed about it for quite a long time and it has become somewhat of a running joke to us now. Now I want to get one for my girlfriend for Valentine’s Day but I have no idea where to find one. I’ve looked at Walgreens so far and had no luck (Wal-Mart, if you can believe it, is pretty far away.)

Have any of you ever seen one of these? Any idea what particular store might carry it, or - gasp - know of a website that has them?

It’s so lame that I’m almost embarassed to go into a store and ask “do you have a Chocolate Moose?”

Something like this? (I used “froogle” – which also had a bunch of chocolate lollipops, etc.)

3

Yes, but this thing couldn’t have cost $30, and it actually said the words “Chocolate Moose” on it.

4

I was afraid this might be nicer than what you were looking for (ya cheap shit). :wink:

:stuck_out_tongue: It’s not that I’m cheap, it’s just that the particular thing I’m looking for is cheap. If I get something too nice she might think it’s a serious gift and this particular one is definitely a gag gift (this isn’t the only thing I’m getting her.)

The lamest gift ever is actually getting a star named after your sweetie. I hate those ads.
Anyway, back to the OP, I checked the Target and Walmart sites and didn’t see anything matching your description.

How about going for “fake knockoff of a cheap gift”? Get the cheapest stuffed moose you can find, and duct-tape a Hershey bar to it? :smiley:

8

Yeah, for a sec I thought you meant the character from ‘Top Secret’. That would be an odd plush toy, though it could sport a kicky beret.
I realize ‘kicky beret’ is redundant, yes.

e-bay

I have a Beanie Baby Moose named Chocolate. That’s what I thought of upon reading the thread title.

Can’t help you with a website, but I did see some of these around Christmas time in the Star Market in Porter Square, Cambridge Mass.

I distinctly remember seeing them & being almost tempted to buy one. Weird.

How odd that this lame gift, so derided by you, turns out to be more difficult to find than a diamond pendant. :slight_smile:

13

Could you all find another subject? Last thing I need is the little lady getting an idea from this and grabbing her jumbo bottle of Hershey’s Chocolate Syrup and squirting it all over me and . . . uh . . . well . . .

Well.

Hmmmm.

Hummmmmmmmm.

Honey? Come here - I think you should read this.

Interesting observation. And true :(.
