G'day,

They're in a red "egg" shaped container, 1 STRAWBERRY Chupa-chup, and 1 lego set
per package. You'll see the chupa-chup top about level with the container top,
but you can't move it enough to work out which set is in there :(

In KMart, try the lolly isle, where other chupa-chups are sold. You may find
them at the registers as well....

In Target, try the Lolly area...If anyone needs some unopened ones, I can
POSSIBLY get some in the next couple of days.

In Safeway/Woolies, try the TOYS isle, but they can be hard to spot.

I MAY also be able to buy boxes of 12 from a friendly local canteen
manager...enquiries welcome, and prices are below those charged at
KMART...before postage of course :)

ALSO, I'm willing to take lower offers on any of the sets I have listed on my
BRICKLINK shop: [And I have a complete set of 12 available for sale/trade that
is not listed]
http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=bwhytcross

NOTE: a box of 12 almost certainly will NOT contain all 12 sets.

I hope this info is useful,

Benjamin Whytcross
