They have this truck overseas too. Just saw it in a toy store in Zurich. (Btw Switzerland's prices are the same as back home in Francs, so once you throw in conversion they are quite pricey)

Is there any interest in these by members here?

If so, try to get on to your nearest stores as they are already being snapped up by people.
I tried 5 stores nearest to me:

Garden City - already reserved.
Calamvale - I left my name and number.
Underwood - said they weren't allowed to give it out (had to destroy it)
Browns Plains - said they had to return it (which wouldn't be true as all other stores said they would be destroyed)
Carindale - I left my name and number as a backup to the Calamvale one.

So if there is a bit of demand for these and you are being told that they can't give it out, or have to destroy them, post here and I can see if getting onto BigW Head-office before the 12th can tell the stores to give them out. After all, it saves them rubbish, and could go somewhere that deserves it.

But be aware that the sale ends in a week, so there isn't much time to be chasing up Head-office if people are wanting these.

I want one for sure, just need to see if Big W in Penrith hasn't got dibs on it yet. I don't visit many other Big W's.

As much as I do, I simply don't have the space :/

Hey Griff, I'd realyl like two.

One for myself and one for the charity later this year if possible.

Guys, try ringing around some of the stores first near you today or tomorrow, that you can get to easily (the ones I reserved told me that they would ring me up and I would need to come that day to get it). This idea of mine would only help if you find a store that won't let you reserve it. If they are happy to give it away, then get in before someone else does.

I don't want to get anyone's hopes up, but my thinking was that if there are stores that are planning to destroy them, or think that they have to, I was wanting to see if the Head Office could send a memo to the store managers before the end of the sale, to allow members here to pick them up instead. And if that were to happen, then we could maybe list up the stores that still have theirs available.
(I'm kinda hoping though, that there wasn't a 'destroy only' policy in place, and me talking to Head office has them reminding stores to not give them out...)
