Build-A-Bear Workshop to let age determine the cost

Toys "R" Us may be gone but another supplier of children's products offers a market on stuffed animals – at least for a day. Thursday's Build-A-Bear Workshop will hold its first "Pay Your Age" day, offering shop visitors a furry friend of their choice for their current age in dollars. This means that a child one year old can get what costs around $ 25 for a dollar.

The promotion, which includes stores in the United States and Canada, will also involve popular licensed characters such as Star Wars and Marvel. Build-A-Bear, which primarily addresses children, also says that no one acting on the company's offer will be considered older than 30, capping the potential cost of one of the his critters at $ 29

. Parents or guardians must register for a free Club-A-Bear Bonus Club rewards program by providing the retailer with a valid email address and name.

If there is a line on Thursday, the stores will let customers buy a stuffed animal and come back another time to "build" it when the shop will be less agitated.

Build-A-Bear has more than 400 stores worldwide.
