Requesting weird favors from Australians.

Hello!

If you are a) Australian, b) reasonably near a Target, and c) willing to do me a small favor in exchange for my sending you some books or something, can you let me know? (Short form: the newest Monster High doll, Torelai Stripes, is only available in Australia. She's an orange werecat. I want her. Help me, Australia, you're my only hope.)

Yay!

Can you look for me? I will be happy to send you whatever you might like from the US if you can find her.

I'm sure you'll be swamped! But I'll check it out at my local target. (Other locals, it's a Target Country in the actual middle of no-where...please pile on. I'll probably be able to buy flannel shirts and Sweet Valley High books.)

You have a Ronald Searle icon! I love you!

I could probably do this, too. We live about 5 minutes away from a Target, and my wife collects the Monster High plush dolls.

YAY. Please do!

I can hit about 3 targets today, I've got the day off work, and no plans apart from getting my hair done. Will let u know how I fare!

If the others have no luck, I can hit two Targets within 15 minutes drive.

I promise that if I fetch up with more than one, I will send books to everyone involved. Better extra than none! Thank you so much.

I see you are all good for offers, but if they can't manage it, happy to look. Will check back on this post to see and edits.

Brilliant, thank you so much.

You have a bunch of offers already, but I'll check back to see how people went and go look if nobody else finds her. I'm within ten minutes of three Targets, so it's no problem.

You are lovely. Also, HI FLUTTERSHY.

Found!! A lovely orange werecat. At the first target I went to as well.

OMG BEST PERSON EVER.

Can you drop me an email through my website contact link so I can mail you back, and we can sort what you want me to send you and how to pay for postage and all of that?

Seriously. My day, SO MADE.

Looks like you are sorted this time, but if such a thing ever occurs again, I work very close to a Target, and can hunt and gather for you.

seanan_mcguire

October 31 2011, 14:38:32 UTC 5 years ago

YAY.

So noted.

I'm sure you have Aussie fans willing to do this, but if no one can, I have a friend in Cairns who I'm sure will be happy to help. :)

I'm sorted for now, but thank you for letting me know!

Yeah, she's just on a delay, but with as hard as it's been to find Abbey and Spectra, this seemed the easier course!

Hi Seanan,


Just to let you know that I've received the ARC safely, and am now in "discussions" with Chris as to which of us gets to read it first. I'm winning at the moment, mostly cos he's allowed to look at the book but not touch... *lol*

Hooray!
