Cats vs Pickles - Mystery Bags - Gold Wave - 1pk - 4 Bean Filled Plushies! Great for Stocking Stuffers, Advent Calendars for Kids, Boys, & Girls.

This was for my 11 year old cousin’s birthday and she loved it since she collects them.

I bought this on a whim with a gift card for my daughter who is 3 an early Christmas treat. It’s essentially a soft bean bag with a cat or pickle design on it. She loves it so I’m happy.

My son’s favorite mystery bags. He’s always wanting to collect them all. He enjoys playing with these.

I had ordered a batch of 6 around February 19, only to get them around March 3, which was way longer of a wait than I had initially expected. I didn’t think much of it and I do consider myself somewhat patient. When I did open it though, I got 6 pickles from all 6 bags. Really... 6 of them. I did not expect to be THAT unlucky. That was really disappointing and hammered down the wait even further. I really do enjoy collecting CVPs, and I do like them a lot, but that was a bit much. Two of the pickles even feel really flat, as if there’s only less than half of the normal amount of beans in them. I am autistic and enjoy holding these and feeling the beans inside, so that was less than ideal. Honestly, looking at it now, that wasn’t worth the long wait time, but it’s partially my fault considering these are blind bags. I did order a batch of 7 last time that came in a timely manner, which was good. That one didn’t have all pickles for whatever reason, which was welcomed. Still... it feels like such a waste to get 6 pickles in 6 bags, with two of them feeling almost weightless and flat. Out of 13 bags, I got 7 pickles and 5 cats with two of the cats being repeats. How can there be so many cat designs, yet I get more than half of the bags as pickles? I don’t know how to feel about this besides a bit saddened by my lack of luck. Pros: -great price, a bit higher than retail stores though (Walmart and Five Below sell these for $5) -lots to collect, so it’s rare to get repeats at least -very soft material and fun to touch -average of 3.2 oz for weight is great for holding Cons: -somewhat long wait time -blind bags are basically gambling (this is for the 1 packs, not the sets) and you can get really unlucky like other customers and I did -some beans have a really low weight/almost flat Overall, they’re fun to collect, but after such horrid luck (1 batch yielded 6/6 pickles, other batch yielded 2 pickles and 2 cat repeats), I feel kind of deterred from collecting more. For those who are collecting, I feel like the open box/12 pc set ones are a way better investment. At least you’ll get 10-11 cats out 12, and not just 5/13 like with the blind bags. Edit: ordered 7 more out of curiosity (thinking I probably just got a bad batch) so that’s 20 packs. 5/20 were cats, 2 cat repeats, and 13 pickles. 13/20 of the packs were pickles. Both orders from different warehouses. Unacceptable.

Its a fun collectable but you will get alot of pickles (which alot of ppl hate)

Have bought these a couple of times for gifts. The kids absolutely love them.

This item is great for the value, I look forward to using it as a stocking stuffer for my son!

Absolutely upset. When ordering you can expect a double or so. But when you get over 6 of one then at that point youre wasting your money.

Adorable little guy. My cat loves it more than I do

For some reason my kid loves these
