    Thanks, I will try there. Walgreens, Rite Aid & CVS all say they carry them but the stores I tried were sold out.

    Silly Bands alert!
    At 11:45 this morning the cashier at Walgreens was putting out what looked to be 3 or 4 cases of bands on the display just as you pass the registers.

    I'm new to these things so I'm not sure. I asked for them by name at Walgreens and they said that the were the real "Silly bandz" so I'm not sure they know! If all else fails you can get them online at Amazon.com or ebay - there are several different brands but silly bandz have their name on the package.

    Got an automated phone call from DS's school (Riverwood) and they are banned effective immediately. :lol: I'm sure other schools will be following suit. 8)

    Got a note from Westview that they are a "distraction." Really? So is everything else in the room. LOL. I think they're more distracted b/c it isthe end of the year and they just don't care to pay attention. I have yet to buy any of these things yet my kids have a pile on their wrists from their friends. I just found out about them this week. I like the price of these though! Guess I'll be stopping by Walgreens this weekend.

    :iagree:

    they love to blame the end of the year "distractions" on something....without fail. It just possibly couldn't be that all day, every day, at least 12 teachers say "only X amount of days till the end of the year" or have a calendar with giant X's marking till the end of the year....gimme a break.

    I on the other hand went to Walgreen's yesterday to get some for the 7th graders that live with me (yes, 7th graders too) and am the proud wearer of a hippo and flamingo silly bandz. I feel so hip yet undistracted. :mrgreen:

    I may get some just to annoy folks, LOL. Not really, because DS thinks they are "stupid" in his words, LOL He said he is only one of 3 in his class that doesn't have them.

    Really, that has got to be one of the craziest generalizations ever. This or any other thing that I buy my child does not mean he can not take NO.. :ack:

    Being a parent does not mean I can not buy my child something
