I was at Target tonight to get diapers and infant cold medication, and of course, had to check the pony aisle. I found the Crystal Bride and Crystal Princess along with the Balloon flying ones and the Petal Parlor.

While walking out the store, I realized that the total amount was higher than what I expected. Looking at the receipt, I saw that Wysteria and Desert Rose were $10.99 each Shocked

Well, I walked back in and returned them, because I thought that was too much.

How much has everyone else who found them paid. Is that the correct price, or was the Target I went to out of their minds?

Out of curiousity, was $14.99 too much for the Balloon Flying Ponies???

I don't know about those two, but I was shocked at the new prices too! My hubby and I stopped in WalMart the other day and picked up both big rainbow dash and pinkie pie, and then both balloon sets as well. Imagine my surprise when our total rang up to be $60! Definitely didn't see that one coming! And all I really wanted from the balloon sets were the breezies! These little teeny ponies are sure costing me a few buckos!

The ones I bought here in Australia were $19.99 AUD each, I think that equates to like $15.30 USD or something, so you're getting them cheaper than us Aussies!

At my walmart I believe the Balloon set with Merriweather was 10.00, which I think was fine...maybe less than that...so I guess it depends on where you live.

I haven't found either here yet in stores but I know that most people are saying that the balloon ponies are about $14.99 and the bride pony about $9.99, the prices do sound pretty high to me. Sad

That does seem a bit high, but I don't think it's enough to stop me LOL What does the Wysteria set come with? Is it just like the other dress up sets or like the birthday celebration set or the set with Moondancer?

Out of curiosity where in Australia are you? I'm in Sydney and I've only seen them for 19.99 when they're on sale. Usually they're more like 25-28 dollars here, which equates to about 18-20 dollars US.
Man, the US gets everything cheaper...why did I leave? haha

*groans* those prices are getting higher, and makes it harder for those of us that don't collect accessories. I may just buy the styling ponies and wait for all of the others to show up in lots on ebay. I can't seem to get rid of G3 accessories and I'm tired of having them pile up in my pony room.

I don't want the accessories either! My big problems are:

1. I don't collect the accessories.
2. They all have to be MIB/MOC

So...no breezies for me unless they don't come with a set. And no other cool ponies like Guava Lava and that crazy parrot one either. Oh well.

9.99 for the bride poines at Walmart I checked the sticker and the balloon girls were 14.97. To get a balloon with a pony and a brezzie for that amount seems so expensive. It brakes down to 5 for the pony 5 for the breezie and 5 for the balloon. That could buy three ponies instead>.<. It appears Hasbroken has been bitten by the money hungry bug:(.

The Wysteria bride was $9.97, and the balloon ponies were $14.97 at Walmart. I passed up on all of those due to the fact that they're reissues, plus I think that's expensive for both. I think the styling ponies were $14.97 also.
