I picked up a money box from Woolies Burwood Westfield's.

They had plenty of all three bits of merch.

Yep the quality does vary with the hand painting on the money boxes.

I think they're ceramic, I haven't unwrapped mine just cut a slit in the plastic and removed the toffees.

Mmmm chewy!

Finished them in one sitting.

Not looking forward to their exit.

Try ringing around and ask them to put one aside for you if they have them.

Scumbags, they were also doing this with the biscuit tins, still available in store for half the price.

There is one there @ $6 or so, the market will dictate what it's worth.

Good on ya, I was thinking the same, it'll cost $13 or so for express post and you'll want plenty of bubble wrap, being ceramic they'd even crack from the tall drop in the post boxes.

That's is what I am doing with the sets I bought and they will be listed early in December.
Call me a scumbag if you wish but this is what I do to keep my SS on the road, build up my Brocky collection and get to Toranafest.

I am on a disability pension and if any one wants to swap bodies with me, then go ahead, you won't like the pain you suffer 24/7.

In saying all of that I have gone down to our local woolies and got the last 2 biscuit tins.
There was only a tin plate left after me getting those 2 tins.

If anyone wants them then they will cost the $6 each I paid, plus postage.

If not wanted then they go on evilbay in December for Chrissy.

I have offered stuff here on the FOR SALE forum and nobody wanted them and they have then gone on evilbay and on the other hand I've had forum members contact me about stuff on evilbay and then a good deal was done so it goes both ways.
