Hey! Since so many people have or are forecast for snow & wintery weather, how about sharing your favorite winter room or yard pics from your Webkinz House?

This is Elsa’s Frozen Wonderland – one of my winter yards:

Comment with a link to your Winter rooms.

The Winter Shopping SPREE runs from January 13 – 21! Log into Webkinz (web OR mobile version) for FREE retro clothing for your pets and the chance to find 3 Bonus SPREE Rolls every day (5 Bonus Rolls for Deluxe Players).

These are what they’ll be giving away during this event:

Remember to look for the floating SPREE dice in Webkinz World during the Winter Shopping SPREE. If you see one click on it to get a FREE Bonus Roll for the Game of SPREE. Play SPREE in the Games Arcade and use the credits you collect to trade for prizes when you make it to the mall.

Remember we only have until Friday (1/12) to look for Snowflakes falling in Webkinz World and click on them to win Winterfest prizes.

Players can win 5 prizes per day, per account (7 for Deluxe players). New prizes for 2018 are the Pink Figure Skates, Ski Goggles, Chalet Armchair, Skis, Chalet Window, Snowshoe Hare Plush, Ski Slope, &  Winter Trail Sign.

TheSpoilerLurker dropped off some good spoilers earlier in December, and in all the rush, I wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to see them & oooh & ahhh or throw tomatoes properly. So in TheSpoilerLurker’s own words:

Let’s kick it off with PETS! Top row, we have the Lovestruck Panda Gift Box, the Lovely Bamboo Loveseat, and the Pink Bamboo Salad. Middle row, we have the Ragdoll Cat Gift Box, Designer Vanity, and Ragout a Go Go. Bottom row is the Purple Persian Kitten, Crown Beanbag Bed, and Priceless Pate.

Here’s the Purple Persian Kitten up close and personal:

Next up is MORE PETS! Top row is the Snuggly Teddy Bear Gift Box (this is the second of the Teddy Bear theme pets, obviously! ), the Teddy Bear Wardrobe, and the Honey BBQ Chips. Bottom row is the Chow Chow Puppy Gift Box, Puppy Wardrobe, and Crunchy Cereal Cup.

Here’s the Snuggly Teddy Bear up close and personal:

And here’s the Chow Chow Puppy up close and personal:

Up next is yet more pets! We don’t have names on any of this stuff yet, but I suspect we’re looking at this year’s Easter pet estore trio. (Easter already?! Can we get through Christmas, New Year’s Day, and Valentine’s Day first? )

Let’s move on to items, shall we? First up is the February ?? Box theme, Tender Hearts. Top row: Tender Hearts ?? Box, Tender Hearts Wallpaper, Tender Hearts Flooring, Tender Hearts Bed. Bottom row: Tender Hearts Rug, Tender Hearts Window, Tender Hearts Lamp, Tender Hearts Dresser.

More estore stuff. Top row: Country Farm Armoire, Country Farm Chair, Country Farm Coffee Table, Country Farm Curtain. Bottom row: no names on this stuff yet, but it appears to be more Country Farm theme.

More estore. The only thing that has a name here is the Purple Fl0ral Wallpaper, but I suspect the top row is more Country Farm and the bottom row is more Purple Fl0ral.

Moving on to the new Chalet theme. You’ve seen some of this before, but now we have names! Top row: Chalet Armchair, Chalet Chair, Chalet Window, Chalet Ski Rack. Bottom row: Ski Slope, Expert Ski Slope, Ski Lift Sofa, Chalet Column.

More Chalet stuff, and next year’s Deluxe Membership prize. Top row: Chalet Wallpaper, Chalet Flooring, Ski Slopes Wallpaper, and the Half Pipe (the deluxe prize that was designed by someone on WKN). Bottom row: We finally get skis!!!!!1!!1! Ski Googles, Winterfest Ski Goggles (presumably a Winterfest prize), Skis, and Winterfest Skis (again, most likely a Winterfest prize).

Valentine stuff. You’ve seen some of this before, but now they’re named. Top row: Pink Sweets Tree, Pretty Pink Sweets, Pink Lollipop Fence, and an unnamed bouquet. The tree is February’s candy tree, the sweets are the candy tree’s food, and the fence is the candy tree tie-in item. Bottom row: Be Mine Divider, Valentine Milkshake Machine (NEEEEED!), Pink Marshmallow Milkshake, and Chocolate Strawberry Milkshake. The two foods are the Valentine Milkshake Machine’s foods.

More Valentine stuff. Some is named and some is not, sorry! Top row: Valentine Zangoz Gumball Machine, Sweetheart Gumball (the food for the aforementioned machine), Sweetheart Castle, Cupid Zingoz Statue. Middle row: and unnamed Cinnamon plushy (OMG NEED NEED NEED NEED!), an unnamed Valentine bookshelf, and an unnamed Valentine sofa. Bottom row: unnamed Valentine side table, cubbies, and armchair.

2018’s Valentine chocolates. No names on these yet, sorry!

Random goodness. Do NOT quote me on this, because the items are not yet named, but I have a feeling that the gems will be one of the peek-a-newz rare items, and the wall art will be the other. Looks like we’re getting a gemstone pile or rug each month for 2018, and it looks like they’re recoloring the Upscale Condo theme from the W Shop and we’ll get a piece of that each month for 2018. Anyway, top row is the January 2018 WKN Gift Box, the unnamed gemstone rug thingy, the unnamed recolored Upscale Condo wall art, and the Teddy Bear Trampoline.

More randomness. Top row: Sneaky Snowball Thrower (which I suspect was made to go along with January’s Room with a View theme, Snowmanland), Sheep Pet Lamp, Year of the Dog House (LOL!), and an unnamed bath tub thingy. Bottom row: unnamed fireplace (possibly chalet?), unnamed art supply shelf, unnamed lantern and unnamed winter castle.

Yet more randomness. None of this has names yet, but I’m gonna make some edumacated guesses, lol. My guesses are usually pretty good…I predicted the contents of this year’s crackers exactly! Anyway, top row is a planter I’m guessing goes with the Purple Fl0ral theme; a Valentine piano that looks like last year’s February Deluxe Challenge harp, so I’m thinking it’s THIS year’s February Deluxe Challenge item; a dresser that has Easter overtones to it (spring mystery bag, maybe?); and a log cabin that I’m guessing goes with the Chalet theme. Bottom row: the next arcade challenge trophy (though I’m darned if I know which game it’s for, because we don’t really have a safari-themed game in the arcade, do we?); an early spring patio door that I’m guessing is estore; and what appears to be a wintergreen berry patio plant and food. To which I say: YAYYYYYYYY! I’m gonna run out of room in my greenhouse for patio plants soon, lol!

And finally, you guessed it: more randomness! Top row is all unnamed, so we have some random donuts, an egg car, a balcony window (maybe it is spring mystery?), and a St. Patrick’s Day bed. Bottom row: an unnamed snowsuit, Pink Figure Skates (YAY!), and the Aurora Crown.

From Mayor Dr. Quack:
*Wacky Zingoz Extreme has been added to the Arcade for Deluxe Members! This fun variation on Wacky Zingoz could previously only be unlocked with a Feature Code that came with a Wacky plush toy.
