Attention parents and grandparents: The Build-A-Bear experience is about to get a lot less expensive — at least for one day. 

On Thursday, all Build-A-Bear Workshops will host the first-ever 'Pay Your Age Day.' All guests will be able to pay their current age in dollars to create a new furry friend. The promotion includes popular licensed characters, including those from the Star Wars and Trolls franchises.

Even the biggest of kids can take part in the event, with the top price capped off at $29. That means anyone 30 or older will still pay $29 to take home a new stuffed creation.

So, what's the catch? Parents or guardians over age 18 need to enroll in the Build-A-Bear Bonus Club rewards program and provide a name and email address. Customers are encouraged to do sign up online before Thursday to avoid long lines in the store.
