Between unboxing posts and weirdly satisfying ASMR videos, NeeDoh has taken over my entire TikTok feed. Fans of these colorful fidget toys love showing off their growing collections and documenting the hunt for hard-to-find shapes.
And just when I thought they couldn't get any more popular, the brand dropped an advent calendar filled with 24 tiny surprise squishies. The catch? It’s rarely ever in stock, and you can’t just add it to your Amazon cart when it is.
Note: scammers are taking full advantage of Needoh’s popularity. (We think they’ll capitalize particularly on the invite feature, too.) Always make sure that the product listing you’re purchasing (or requesting an invite) from is sold by Amazon or Schylling and is shipped from Amazon.
Instead, you'll have to join Amazon's invitation list for a chance to snag one. And if there's a NeeDoh-obsessed kid on your Christmas list (or you've been building a roster of your own), you'll want to get your name on it sooner rather than later.
Thankfully, getting on said list is easy.
- First, log in to your Amazon account and head to the NeeDoh Advent Calendar's product page.
- Instead of the usual ‘Add to Cart’ button, you'll see a ‘Request Invitation’ option. Click it, and you're officially in the running to purchase one.
- Shortly after submitting, you’ll receive a confirmation email that it went through.
If you're selected, Amazon will email you a link to purchase the calendar, but you'll have just 72 hours to place your order. A countdown timer on the product page will show how much time you have left, so keep a close eye on your inbox.
Didn't get an invitation? You're not necessarily out of luck. Amazon says your request will remain eligible if more inventory becomes available. Just keep in mind that invitations aren't guaranteed—shoppers are selected at random—and if your 72-hour purchase window expires, you'll need to submit a new request.
While you wait, you don't have to put all your squishies in one basket. Walmart also holds NeeDoh drawings, giving you another chance to try your luck.
