A highlight of traveling in Canada was when we stopped at a rest station and I found a Winnie the Pooh machine. Every once in awhile I will find one of these gumball machines that have little Pooh figures dressed up in rubbery animal costumes. They are tiny little nothings, but I think they are cute, and I crack myself up when I say things like "Look! I have a Bunny Pooh!"... " Do you like Skunk Pooh?"... "Hold this Panda Pooh"... bah-hah-hah!

  6. No such vending machines in the States? I was going to get one last time I saw one - but no coinage at the time. I figure they would make fun cell phone accessories on the super-cheap!

  19. My son loves these things. Unfortunately, we have a TON of duplicates. I'm willing to trade for ones he doesn't have (he really wants whale and crab from the ocean collection). If anyone wants the others, let me know - they're clogging up my front room!
