A Guide To Finding Elmo TMX

Help With Finding The Elusive Elmo TMX

Elmo TMX is the hot toy for 2006. They are difficult if not impossible to find in many locations. Many stores report that they are constantly out of stock and do not know when more will arrive. Other problems with finding Tickle Me Elmo have been reported. Employees of large toy sellers have been hoarding them. They know that they are valuable and have been caught holding them back for themselves or family and friends. We have put together a comparison shopping guide that will help you find TMX at the best price!

Use Comparison Shopping Sites
There are several websites that allow you to compare prices and check availability for our favorite furry red three year old.

Get There Early
Most retailers stock their shelves overnight. Try arriving at stores that are open 24 hours a day late at night. Others have reported success in getting a TMX by shopping for one at 2 or 3 in the morning. It sounds extreme, but if you really want one, this is worth a try.
Give a local shop a chance
A friend of mine got a Tickle Me Elmo through a local hobby shop. The owner of the business had connections in the toy industry and was able to find one for her. This store owner was more than happy to help, and has gained a new loyal customer.

Black Friday
It has been rumored that Wal-Mart has a supply of TMX Elmo that they will be selling on the day after Thanksgiving. If you feel like getting up at 4 in the morning and fighting for him, this may be a good chance to get one at retail.
