Ok, here's what you do:
1) Buy a cheap inflatable pool from Canadian tire.
2) Visit Ikea often; jackets /w really deep pockets will cut down on trips.
;)
Kidding aside, I have no idea that these where for general sale to the public as a package. You can actually use an inflatable pool and fill it with "Fun Ballz" (try google for sources) which seem to be pretty close to what you'd find in an Ikea/McDonalds, etc, etc. I went a slightly different route; I pick up oversized stuffed animals any time I see them on sale (ie, all are bigger then my daughter, but none cost more then $18!), throw them in a pile on the floor and my daughter (1.5 years) loves jumping all over them.
Unfortunately storage may soon become a problem.

There is a store at Vaughan Mills that may sell what you are looking for, right across from the Bass store. I don't know the name but it sells all the balls and play areas that are folding/pop-ups. Good luck!

I got ours at Zellers. It's not a huge one and I think we only paid like $12 each. DD loves it tho.

Was thinking the exact same thing.
Won't Toys R Us have this stocked in the next few weeks?

If you want to come pick it up, you can have one for free.

I did see some at Toys r Us today near their bikes, etc.
I found that they can deflate easily though so while my kids were young, I used the balls in the playpen or the superyard (plastic gate that has 6 sides and attaches together to contain the little ones but gives more room than the play pen).

It's called Snap Up Toys. My son's favourite toy is his ball house. Gets messy sometimes though because he thinks it's a riot to stand up and lean against the wall causing the entire house to tip over and all the balls to spill out. Got it for him for his 1st bday and he still plays with it almost every day (he's 15 months old now).
