I just got this email notice and thought I would pass it on if you missed it :wink:

1. Watch for NEW Bonus Bunnies!

Keep your eyes peeled for special FabShop Hop Bonus youfoundit bunnies! As you're hopping and shopping, bonus bunnies will be hopping around the shops, too-when you click on a youfoundit bunny, it may also enter you into an additional random prize drawing! How will you know if you've found a bonus bunny? When you click to register a youfoundit bunny that is also a bonus bunny, you will find the bonus on the Prize Verification Confirmation Page a message saying, "You found a bonus bunny!" Find 10 bonus bunnies, and you'll be entered to win an additional random prize drawing. You can search for bonus bunnies even if you have already found youfoundfit bunnies for this hop-visit the shops again. You can only find bonus bunnies from September 15-30.

I got to go hopping again. Yeppee :lol: :lol: :lol: Still looking for seven more bunnies.

LucyInTheSky 09-21-2009 12:25 AM

Been hopping... tired....

Okay, I've found 9 of those stupid 10 bunnies. A begged a friend of mine who had found all 10 to tell me where the remaining bunny is. She said Allentown. But I found that bunny, and refound it a few times tonight, and it's not coming up as a bonus bunny.

So far I've found 161 of the 181 bunnies (within the Sept 15-30 time frame) and I'm a bit annoyed and wondering if anyone else is finding their bonus bunnies do or don't match with their friends?? Do you think the bonus bunnies move around??

tlrnhi 09-21-2009 01:27 AM

I need to get back to hopping.
Sigh.......just another thing to add to my long list of things to do.

Bevanger 09-21-2009 04:26 AM

i was all done with it, but i think i'll go play again

LucyInTheSky 09-21-2009 08:45 AM

I have re-hopped to all but 11 shops! And some of those bunnies are hard to find. Yet I can't find the last bonus bunny. This is frustrating, since all my other ones matched up with my friend, yet the Allentown one isn't showing up as a Bonus and it did for her. Could someone else click it and see if they get a bonus bunny there? I can't figure out if the bunnies hop around or not...

SulaBug 09-21-2009 09:15 AM

This sounds really exciting!! :D I
think I will have to go hopping too.
:D :D :D :D

Have you tried going back and clicking on it again??? I just haven't had time to do this months hop... I am wondering...did I read that they may switch around the bonus bunnys??? My mind is still a bit foggy yet...need more coffee LOL

I've clicked, and clicked, and clicked. I've tried different browsers, different days. I'm not sure if they move the bonus bunnies around. Since Allentown was a bonus for my friend but not for me ... maybe?? It really wouldn't make sense to move the bunnies around. I'm just severely frustrated!

Shemjo 09-21-2009 04:46 PM

I will have to go back to the shop hopping! :lol:

DA Mayer 09-21-2009 07:13 PM

I finished hopping today and did 181 and 15 bonus ones, don't ask how because I couldn't find them when I went back!!! LOL

Wow, 15 bonus ones? I found 8 with 11 shop lefts.. I like yours better :D

LucyInTheSky 09-21-2009 09:43 PM

4 shops left and still can't get to 10 bonus bunnies... don't know what is up with that... :cry: :cry: :cry:

tlrnhi 09-21-2009 09:46 PM

I did 36 shops and found only 2 bonus bunnies

The ones I found were pretty scattered alphabetically. Someone else said she found 15 in 181. I've only found 8 in 176. So there aren't tons and tons out there...

I wonder if this means that they are randomly hopping around? If so that is soooo not right!!! You might have to go through the shops several times if you are not very lucky....

tlrnhi 09-22-2009 12:02 AM

I went back to the 2 shops I got the bonus bunnies from and they aren't there anymore.

LucyInTheSky 09-22-2009 10:31 AM

I had my friend (in Belgium) click on a bunny for Allentown, since I knew there was supposed to be a bunny there and I'd clicked it about 10+ times, anyway, he FOUND the bunny (and entered my email address). I'm thinking the site might remember your IP address or not like you if you've been to the shop previously but not found the bunny... I'm not sure. I'm up to 9 bunnies now with 4 shops left (and those have really hidden bunnies)... I'm thinking of just giving up...

BellaBoo 09-22-2009 11:12 AM

I went back and checked the sites where I found the bonus bunny and they didn't show up as bonus anymore. I think they are random on the confirmation page not on the sites.

amma 09-22-2009 11:35 AM

Hmmmm maybe try deleting your temporary internet files and then go and try again???
If that doesn't work, I would email the ShopHop and let them know... If it is a problem for you all...it must be for a good amount of others, too.

LaurieJane 09-27-2009 11:23 PM

I have been back to the Allentown site several times because they have some fabric on clearance that I am debating about, and have not found a bonus bunny at Allentown.

By the way, how much money does one usually spend at FabShopHop? I am almost at $200 - but there were just so many sales too good to pass up. I now have enough fabric and projects to last for the next decade!

amma 09-28-2009 07:28 AM

Has anyone found out if the bonus bunnys are roaming around through the shops?

I know the only way to keep me from spending money during the shop hop LaurieJane, is if I don't paticipate!!! LOL. Other wise, I could spend that much and even more.... :roll: :lol:

LucyInTheSky 09-28-2009 08:28 AM

I found 9, at 176 stores, got annoyed, and gave up.

I usually don't spend any money. I try to focus on the bunnies and ignore the sales. I don't have the money to spend now, so it's dangerous to hop, but as long as I can keep myself focused, I'll be fine

LaurieJane 09-29-2009 09:28 AM

I have found 8 bonus bunnies at 178 shops. Right now it has become my obsession just to find those last 3 bunnies, and I can't find them! The shops give you no clue and I have been to the usual places - new items, sale items, newsletter, and the about us page. Has anybody found the bunnies for Calico Cat & Bernina Too, Cherished Pieces, and Waechter's Silk Shop?

Hi Laurie -

I didn't find any bonus bunnies at these 3 tho :(

Calico - it's under mailing list. I searched and searched and searched, found it, and was like OMG, how did I miss it - http://www.thecalicocat.com/mailing.html

Cherished Pieces - Newsletter also - http://www.cherishedpieces.com/index...letter_sign_up

Waechter - Click on "Fabric" - http://www.fabricsandbuttons.com/Mer...egory_Code=FAB


And now, if possible, I would love if you could help me find my last 4. Around the Block, Fat Quarter Factory, Great American Quilt Factory Inc, and Homespun Hearth

Good luck :mrgreen:

LucyInTheSky 09-29-2009 12:17 PM

Never mind with Homespun. I had to open it in IE and then the bunny appeared. No bunny in Firefox... was driving me NUTS. Weird...

LaurieJane 09-29-2009 03:35 PM

Thanks for the help LucyInTheSky. I am afraid I am not tech-savvy enough to give you all 3 answers at once, but the Around the Block can br found at http://www.aroundtheblockquiltersshop.com/store.php and what you do is when you get to the home page, double click on the cartoon picture of their house, and then scroll down the page it takes you to. When I just went back to reconfirm where it was, it gave me a bonus bunny!

LaurieJane 09-29-2009 03:56 PM

Here is where the bunny is at Great American Quilt Factory - it is hiding under the picture of "Let's Build A Snowman" and then you have to scroll to the bottom of the page.
http://greatamericanquilt.com/letsbuildasnowmanrom.html

I could not find the Fat Quarter Factory to which you were referring. Did you mean Fat Quarter Shop or Fat Quarter World?

Again, thanks for help with the last 3 shops. They were driving me nuts!

LucyInTheSky 09-29-2009 04:03 PM

Hi Laurie -

Thank you! I don't think I ever even FOUND the home page for Around the Block. No bonus bunnies though :(

I meant Fat Quarter SHOP http://www.fatquartershop.com/, sorry about that.

So are you at the 10 bunnies you needed?

LucyInTheSky 09-29-2009 04:04 PM

And never mind on Fat Quarter Shop. I went back there, and found the bunny is one click...

So I have found all 181, but only 9 bonus bunnies... that's upsetting...

I think that does answer that they jump around... unfortunately...

LaurieJane 09-29-2009 04:28 PM

I think you just have to randomly click around for those bunnies. I went back and, with my 10 year old son standing next to me and "helping", I asked him which shop has a cool sounding name and after only the second name he said, I found another bonus bunny. I was going to set my watch and time how fast they come. I wonder if they are more likely to appear now, around dinnertime (here on the west coast). If you are like me, you have probably invested a few hours in this endeavor, so you might as well spend another 30 minutes to find your last bonus bunny! Good Luck!
