Yep..good sets, and BIG boxes. I got some about a week ago, and more Monday
night. If the sets weren't on a promo cardboard stand, it may be possible to
get the one from the safeway you got your sets from...they are 3 parts: the
stand, the shelf, and the big picture back/top, and come in the same carton
as the sets. [but from personal experience...they can be a real BU***R to
put together...

Yay! got my sets yesterday, think I was the first one to buy them :) Well • my
woolies didn't have many though, maybe more out back I dunno but if that's
all they got then, wow!  They are a great price in my opinion!  If anyone
needs any, let me know!  Otherwise give Woolies headoffice a call and they
will tell you where the closest place to you is that will stock them. • Best
of luck...

most of them, it would seem*) theoretically now do.  I'm guessing that • there

checking out?!

Good luck!

*Between the two of us I think Frances and I checked every Purity in
Southern Tas last week and the only store that had them was Sorell • (Frances'
initial find).  As it is now an advertised line they all should have the
stock as of yesterday.

Just went down to the local Safeway and asked my stepson (the duty manager at the time) about the stands, and they have 4 of them unused, so he put them all aside for me, and hopefully I will get them all. :-) That will hopefully solve the shelf (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
