    I began watching MLP this week, began watching season 1, found this website, and now I think I'm ready to go and buy some merch.

    Where can I find t-shirts and MLP sweat-shirts? I don't have a Hot Topic where I live and I don't know where I can them in my size. I checked out the Walmart website and all the ones I found were for little girls. I'm not a little girl anymore, so I can't buy them at Walmart.

    I have close to $20 saved up, and I want to buy as much as I can with that money that I have. I'm going to Walmart one day this weekend, and I'm nervous about going into the toy-section at Walmart and spending my money on MLP merch.

    Twenty bucks won't buy you much, but you can usually find a few good deals at Walmart.

    As for being nervous, don't be. It's almost Christmas.
    If anybody notices you at all, they'll just assume that you're buying gifts.

    I'm not that nervous now, since it's the Christmas, like you said. I'm hoping to find some deals, and I'll have to save up some more money later on. I hope I can find a Rainbow Dash plush for a decent price.

    Good luck with that. Licensed plushies go quick, especially around the holidays.

    I found that blind bags were a good start. The comics are pretty cheap if you are short on cash as well.

    That's gonna help me out. Thanks. Since I never took a good look at the MLP section in Walmart, I don't know what'll be there and what's left... Since it's Christmas season. I can buy more after Christmas when I'm not short of money.

    if you are too afraid to purchase in a store like walmart then you should just order it online. It's under $20 for a shirt here and they have a lot of different designs! Good luck!

    Brony.com, baby. That's pretty much all you really need to go to, if Walmart somehow beats the prices there.

    This could be a bit expensive but the we love fine website certainly has the variety. http://www.welovefine.com/ Also in terms of stores other than hot topics For Your Entertainment (FYE) has pony shirts commonly if there is any near you. They tend to cost less than hot topics too, though Hot Topics may have more options.

    Look around on the net, or, if you wanna pay cash, Hot Topic and Walmart has stuff. I hate dealing with the Walmart staff in my town, though.

    I think the blind bags are good for a start too.

    Amazon, Redbubble, HotTopic.com...
    A google search also found me MLPMerch.com, but I suggest using only big-name sites to ensure safety.

    One of these days... when I actually have a job/money...

    I'd like to buy some stuff too. Will I wear it out in public? I haven't decided.

    Maybe a shirt, maybe a hoodie, and maybe some plushies?

    The only problem with plushies, is that pretty much all of them are expensive. All of the online ones anyway.

    Any suggestions for the stuff I want? I'd prefer decent official plushies and anything for the shirts/hoodies...

    :ahh:
