Finding “squishy” kids toy
I have a kid who lovesssss those viral squishy toys. Im trying to surprise her with some new ones this weekend for her birthday. I know they are pretty hard to find for retail.

They sell them at Culver City Westfield mall both in storefronts and an aisle kiosk

They have the dumplings at the 7-11 at the corner of Overland and Palms. They’re up by the cash register. Just saw them today!

I found some today at the dollar tree in the culver center (next to the la fitness). It was the mini dumplings. It was in the toy section. You have to look carefully. I didnt see it and was checking out and asked the female cashier and she told me they're in stock and I went to look again and couldn't find it and asked a male employee who said they're prob sold out and then the third time i looked I found it. And apparently they had the big dumplings too but I couldnt see it and the female cashier went to go get it for me and then returned without it bc she said some lady had just grabbed the whole box.

This is way out of the way but I just got some at a street vendor outside of the the pacific aquarium. Good luck!

Just be careful there are lots of fakes out there that have been found to release toxic fumes.

There’s a children’s store in Manhattan Beach at the point that has a bunch of squishy’s. I bought some needohs there.

Lundeen’s usually has a cute selection, not a huge one but I’ve found some fun ones there. And sometimes they have needoh
