Any idea where I could get lots of random lego blocks?

Finally thought that it may be cheaper that buying lots of kits and mixing them

(...) G'day, Well, I can't speak for Sydney, but down here in Melbourne there's several second-hand toy shops. [and yes, I am the reason that at least one of the stores rarely has lego on the shelves :) ] Should you wish, I'm sure there's quite a (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.loc.au.nsw.syd)
