I was in McDonald's a few weeks ago and heard a parent say "we've been to 3 locations looking for this toy!" Apparently some kids want them bad enough to force their parents to go to extremes to get them.

Reminds me of Beanie Babies in the late 90's

  McD made a boatload from a teeny beanie babies promotion: "Estimates suggest that McDonald's made $250 million of sales on Teenie Beanie Baby Happy Meals during this promotion."

What ever happened to "no"?

  Maybe the kid brought home an all "A" report card and the parent wanted to do something nice. Or not. Probably not. But I've been known to reward my kids with something they want if they have done something deserving a reward.

    "I've been known to reward my kids with something they want" <-- if your kids asked you specifically for a mcdonalds toy, would you oblige?
