Yep, coles the supermarket. Unfortunately, I can't remember the set prices, although I think they were around the same as the prices at K-Mart. Woolworths [safeway in Vic] used to stock the small sets, then went to meccano, and now have tyco(?) (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

I was in a coles supermarket on the weekend [sunbury] and noticed that they had a small range [10-20 different small sets] of lego [about 40 sets in total] I was wondering if this is in all Coles, or just a select few, and also when they started (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
