'Worth every cent'

In her TikTok video, Mon tells viewers, "This Kmart find is for all the kids born in the 90s or the early 2000s."

"The main thing that I came [to Kmart] for was a Tamagotchi. When I was a kid, and I used to go to school, Tamagotchis were banned, so my mum used to literally look after them so that they wouldn't die when we were at school.

"And when I heard that they got re-released and were out in Kmart and Target I literally ran to search the aisle and they were all gone or stolen, apart from one that I found at the back."

In the video, Mon finds a Tamagotchi hidden behind several other items, with one user commenting, "Someone's 100% going to be annoyed when they go back for that Tamagotchi they hid, good find haha."

"I still have my Tamagotchi from when I was 8, I'm now 27," another said.

"Tamagotchis were my life OMG," a third wrote.

"Mine literally just died like 20 minutes ago," someone else added. "I can't keep this thing alive like I could in the 90s."

"Mine has died several times, why was it easier as a child," Mon replied.

"So frigging cute!" another said, with Mon adding that they are "worth every cent".
