This Blog is dedicated in memory of Stacy, Long Hair, Melissa, Sparkle Eye, Brown, JTT( The only “Ken” I owned), Jasmine, Aladdin, Olive, bathtub foam dress and Princess Barbie. They lived full and happy life, playing everyday, coming alive at night, and being the best friends anyone could ever ask for. Unfortunately one cold wintry night last year they were murdered. The weapon of choice was a plastic bag. The bodies were disposed of in the back Alley. The culprit was tried but never went to jail claiming, “I’m the mom” whatever that means. Justice has never been served.
In memory of loved and lost ones… I write this blog…
The Genius’s at Mattel have decided a new marketing strategy, their new strategy of marketing is sector specializing. They have made created a series of babies for each community in large cities.. or for a place like Vancouver… They included the lower main land… Below are the actual Mattel descriptions along with the Barbie… They use the same Barbie for different communities. It works well. I am profiling Vancouver Lower Mainland Barbie & Calgary Barbie.
Actual Descriptions…(note these are NOT official descriptions by Mattel.)
