2009 Hottest Selling Toy

While previous Christmases experienced "Tickle Me Elmo" and the Nintendo Wii, this year welcomes the Zhu Zhus.  These furry little non-allergic hamsters seem to be the biggest craze!  They come in 4 different colors and motor across the floor.

 Interestingly enough these hamsters are not that expensive.  They are probably one of the cheaper toys, if you can find them.  Walmart (when in stock) is selling a 2 pack for $16.00.  If you think that you could just buy the hamsters though, you are mistaken.  Cepia LLC has included a whole line of hamster balls, tubes and activity toys for your hamsters.  Don't worry, the price adds up after a while.  Interested in what is out there, see their PDF file
Recently these furballs came under fire when a California Company, GoodGuide.com, insisted these toys were not safe.  While this accusation could have been detrimental, the CPSC cleared the hamsters quickly to keep Christmas sales revving.  To read more of that story, visit the Wall Street Journal Online.
