This has been getting a lot of attention, so I thought I’d share here, with some tips for avoiding a long wait.
Here’s what Build-a-Bear is doing. They’re offering an unbeatable deal one day only – Thursday, July 12, 2018.
The deal is that kids can get any furry friend in their workshop for only the cost of their age! So if your kid is 5 years old, they can get a bear for $5. If they’re 2, they can get one for $2. Pretty sweet, right?
To get the deal, you’ll have to sign up for their Bonus Club either online or in-store, which is totally free.
However, this deal will likely mean really long lines. They even have a note about this on their website and Facebook page. A good way to avoid the crowds is to sign up for their Bonus Club online, and then your child (14 and under) will get the deal for a special Birthday Treat bear during the month of their birthday.

Read more on their website! And read my review of our experience at the Build-a-Bear Workshop at the Mall of America a couple years ago!
