Build-A-Bear gives away free bears

Build-A-Bear gives shoppers another chance to snap up a bargain bear.

With National Teddy Bear day coming up soon (undoubtedly Build-A-Bear’s favourite day of the whole year), it’s time for Build-A-Bear fans and its franchisees to celebrate. So, to mark the occasion, the franchise is offering shoppers a chance to claim a free bear for their little ones.

After the incredible popularity of Build-A-Bear’s last promotion, which saw parents queuing out into the street to grab a ‘pay your age’ bear, the toy store franchise is holding another incredible discount event. Customers who are quick enough will be able to reserve an exclusive ticket at their local participating store on either Saturday 8th or Sunday 9th of September.

It will entitle them to entry to the store and a free chocolate brown bear, as long as they spend a minimum of £10 instore. So, by picking up a few cute clothes, shoes and accessories for their little one’s newest friend (or for their oldest companions at home), customers can walk away with an exclusive bear that will make a great treat to celebrate the start of the new term.

The franchise decided to issue tickets after demand for their ‘pay your age’ promotion was much greater than expected. By controlling the number of ‘guests’ at each location, it will ensure that everyone has a chance to take up the exciting offer and minimise the risk of dangerous overcrowding in stores and shopping centres.

Since it was founded in 1997, Build-A-Bear has been making people smile with its unique range of customisable bears. With more than 400 locations worldwide, it’s the go-to location for children (and adults) who are looking for their perfect furry friend, with options to personalise them with voices, adorable clothes and accessories and even fabulous wigs.
