MISSING ELMO!!!

Attention all cars! Elmo has been stolen! If you see a red fuzzy monster about two feet high please report to the nearest Wal-Mart!
Recently a shipment of one of the hottest toys for this upcoming holiday season went missing! A shipment of 100 Elmos went missing in route to a Wal-Mart store in Bentonville, Arkansas. Since there is a suspected shortage of these toys this upcoming holiday season, getting the missing Elmos to the store is vital. Their value was already high because of the shortage, but if there is an illegal 100 Elmos running around they will have a significant effect on the sales this season.
Do you think that Wal-Mart is justified to be looking for these toys as much as they are? Could they be spending more money to look for 100 toys than they're worth?

Im sure just as the shopping season hits it's peak, these dolls will "reappear".

The question in my mind is whether Wal Mart knows more than we think, and this is a part of the projected shortage plan.
