ebay.
and came across this...

i found this or one the same 9 months ago but as i my wife and i were exspecting our baby boy i diddnt get it then.
when it came up this time around i had to have it....just hoping this isent a mass production item as i ended up paying $286.00 posted from sydney to melbourne for it..
any one else got one ?????
ive started to make a custom mini shaped cookie cutter so i can fill it with mini cookies too.
should haver this finished soon.

Thats where mine came from, cost about $15, but I'd sell it for the right price.

$286!! Ouch!! :shock:

We had a thread on this item a few weeks ago. I have two - one at home and one on my desk at work. Both came from a local gift shop.
