Ever wanted to go Deluxe? It’s half off today only!

I love being a Deluxe Member – in case you didn’t notice, I’m just a tiny bit obsessed with Webkinz. 🙂

Being a Deluxe Member gets me access to more games in the Arcade, lets me visit Vacation Island, scores me a gift box each month…and so much more!

Cyber Monday Deal

I spent the weekend covering the huge Black Friday Sale at the Ganz eStore, so I’d be remiss not to mention the Cyber Monday deal happening today – 50% off the purchase of 60,000 eStore points or more! That’s 60,000 eStore points for $25!

cyber-monday-2016-points-page

Ganz is also celebrating Cyber Monday with the arrival of the Holly Fox. I purchased one this morning, and I’m really looking forward to adopting it – I think my Holly Fox will be  a girl, and I’ll name her Noel!

The sale on eStore points is good for today (Nov 28th) only, so hurry and get yourself all set for buying Christmas goodies, like surprise stockings and tinsel crackers!

Food Dispensers for 1800 eStore Points!

If you pay close attention while you’re playing Webkinz, then you’ll often see some special food floating across your screen. For instance, there have been Marshmallow Bunnies, Rainbow Lollies and even a Gumdrop Clover. These floating foods are actually promos for food dispensers available at the Ganz eStore.

So what is a food dispenser? Food dispensers are virtual items that provide one consumable food item per day when clicked on. For example, I have a Theater Chocolate Dispenser in my theater room, and I click on it each day to get a Theater Chocolate Pop to feed my pets.

Food dispensers are especially fun if you like to collect food or trade for unusual food items in the Trading Room in the Clubhouse. Some of the most fun and unique foods come from food dispensers…so why don’t I have more in my rooms?

Well, most food dispensers cost around 6,000 eStore points, and I usually spend my eStore points on clothing items and mystery bags. But, if you really dig through those Black Friday Sales at the Ganz eStore, you’ll find several food dispensers on sale for 70% off! That makes each food dispenser only 1800 points each!

I found four food dispensers in the 70% off section and purchased one of each of them:

  1. Party Punch Dispenser
  2. Webkinz Icepresso Machine
  3. Pink Popcorn Machine
  4. Milkshake Machine

Let’s take a look at the foods these items dispense and how they will look in your pet’s room.

First up is the Party Punch Dispenser.

party-punch

The Party Punch Dispenser looks like a ghost ship, so I put it in this Halloween party room:

party-punch-2

When you click on the Party Punch Dispenser you get a glass of Party Punch:

party-punch-drink

Next is the Webkinz Icepresso Machine:

icespresso

I think the Icepresso Machine is a perfect fit for a cafe or coffee shop themed room:

The Webkinz Icepresso Machine dispenses one Ice Frothy each day.

Now let’s take a closer look at the Pink Popcorn Machine:

pink-popcorn

To me the Pink Popcorn Machine seems like the perfect match for a slumber party, so I placed it in this movie/birthday/slumber party room I’ve been working on:

pink-pop

When you click on the Pink Popcorn Machine, you get a bowl of popcorn.

bowl-of-popcorn

Last up is the Milkshake Machine:

I liked the idea of putting the Milkshake Machine in a diner themed room.

You can click on the Milkshake Machine each day to receive one 50’s Diner Milkshake.

Decorating with Black Friday Deals

One of my favorite Webkinz activities is designing rooms. (I’m still hoping to win that Room Design Award trophy someday!) There are a lot of great items in the Wshop, but I have to admit that I’m pretty hooked on the awesome furniture you can find in the Ganz eStore.

Some of my favorite decorating finds are actually on sale for 70% off right now. I thought it would be fun to showcase some of the rooms I’ve designed with these very inexpensive items.

For example, several of the items I used to create this “Library Bedroom” are on sale for 70% off right now:

library-bedroom

My Library Bedroom is still a work in progress, so excuse some of the misplaced items. 🙂 The important thing is that you can make a room like this too with some of the 70% off items available during the Black Friday Sale.

First, we have the Persian Cat Library Wallpaper and the Persian Cat Library Flooring.

library-wallpaperlibrary-flooring

I also added a couple of Persian Personal Bookcases and two Bookworm Chairs.

Here’s a room I designed for my Grumpy Cat. Over in the lower right corner you can see a couple of Moon Flowers that I used for decoration.

grumpy-cat

Moon Flowers are 70% of 750 points, which means a final cost of only 375 eStore points!

moon-flower

I imagine that this room would be perfect for a Pageant Queen!

In the upper right hand corner you can see the Jammed Jewelry Box and the Jewelry Box Toy Chest I used to help decorate this room.

It took me quite a while to put this room together because I kept changing up the kitchen area. I finally traded for a second skunk strips fridge.

lun-lun-room

Between the two skunk striped refrigerators I’ve placed an Iridescent Counter.

I also used the Skunk Stripes Flooring.

I really love Halloween, so I made this Halloween party room last year and filled it up with lots of pets in costumes. I used the Halloween Dance Wallpaper, the Halloween Dance Floor and the Halloween Stereo System.

In this Butterfly Garden, I used the Aquamarine Butterfly Tree:

I know it doesn’t make sense to have a topiary in an indoor room, but I just love the way the Rosy Dolphin Topiary looks with all the other pinks and blues in this room I made for my Pink Dalmatian:

So those are just a few ideas for ways to use the Black Friday Sale items in your room designs. Which sale items do you like best? Have you been shopping the Ganz eStore sale?

Black Friday Sales! Big savings and lots of fun!

The Ganz eStore is having a HUGE Black Friday sale. Whatever items you’re in the market for, the eStore has got you covered. There’s 70% off on items including clothes, furniture, wallpaper and flooring. There’s 40% off select exclusive online pets. And that’s just the beginning!

One of the highlights for me is the 50% off sale on CandyKinz pets and CandyKinz theme room items. I used several pieces from this collection in my “Good Ship Lollipop,” which won me a free virtual Pet of the Month from a Webkinz Newz contest.

good-ship-lollipop

For instance, I used the CandyKinz Lollipop Chair and the CandyKinz Wishing Well in my design. I created the pathway use CandyKinz Pathway Tiles. And I even included the CandyKinz Gumdrop Sofa!

I thought the Licorice Fish was so adorable that I bought one of those, too! I’ll adopt it this weekend so I can put up a video and show you how the Licorice Fish looks in Webkinz World.

Another pet I picked up this weekend is the ultra exclusive Sugar Plum Sparkle Pegasus. This online pet is ONLY available during the Black Friday weekend sale at the Ganz eStore, and once the sale is over, this pretty purple sparkling pet will be gone! I’ll adopt her this weekend too so I can show you what she looks like in Webkinz  World. (I definitely think my Sugar Plum Sparkle Pegasus is a girl!)

sugar-plum-sparkle

It’s time for me to go eat some lunch – but I’ll be back later today with more reporting on the Black Friday Sale at the Ganz eStore. And I’ll do a post with some hints for earning the Cash Cow 2 Trophy (only available this weekend!).

 

The chewing noises are back…and so am I!

Hey everyone! I’ve missed you all so much! Life has been busy in the “real world” for a while now, but I’m back and ready to blog!

Webkinz got a Wednesday update today, and the chewing/swallowing noises are back. So what do you think? Do you like them or wish they’d go away again?

Don’t forget to login on Thanksgiving for your gift basket and other fun activities and prizes, and stay tuned to my blog on Black Friday as I keep you updated on all the awesome sales happening at the Ganz eStore, including the Sugar Plum Sparkle Pegasus and 70% off assorted items. (The Sugar Plum Sparkle Pegasus will ONLY be available through November 27th!)

Ganz eStore 20/20 Sale

Well, it turns out I went a little crazy with the Ganz eStore 20/20 sale – spend 20,000 points and get 20% off your purchases.

20 20 sale

I combined the 20/20 sale (also known as the “After Dark Sale”) with the special promo code for 30% off eStore points and got myself 33,000 eStore points for $20.99.

promo code

Yes…that’s a bit crazy, I know! 🙂 But hey, it’s one of the perks of being a grownup – I can buy imaginary clothes with real money if I want to!

Because the theme of the sale was “After Dark,” items and pets related to the theme were on sale as well. So, I finally got myself the Midnight Marten I’ve had my eye on for a long time! I haven’t adopted it yet because I’m still working on the perfect name.

Another pet I bought was a Moon Fox. I adopted her this morning and named her Luna.

luna adoption cert

The Moon Fox’s pet specific item (PSI) is the Blue Moon Lagoon, which I think looks really cool. I’m trying to think of a room theme that would go well with this PSI:

luna psi

In addition to the two pets, I bought a Night at the Movies Wardrobe, a carton of white chocolate eggs (unboxing video soon to come!) and some clothes, including a mermaid outfit that I’ve never seen before.

I guess that’s about all for now. I’m going to start working on my unboxing video for the 2016 Carton of White Chocolate Eggs. (I won another carton a couple of months ago when I was a finalist in the Room Design Awards.)

Have a great day! 🙂
