    Hmmm... unless there are a lot of those promotional bonus buys of things you want or need, the "1 domino per $20" would take at least $880... and that's ONLY if you don't get any doubles or have trading options. So expect to have to get at least 80-100 random packs to end up with the set of 44, which is $1600-2000!
    And unless the promotion goes for several months, people will need to do a lot of spending per week to get to that range of spending.
    With the dominoes being better than the cards or stickers, this should be a really good money earner for Woolies.

    From the link in my post above, you can scroll through and see what items are also on sale at the same time as earning a bonus domino... like toilet paper for half price - something you can stock up on, and it's not going to go off.

    yea, being we only buy for the two of us, we're hoping the promotion goes longer than the cards or the staff get lazy about counting like they did with the cards. that was the only way we ended up getting the full sets.

    One thing we tried was looking through the packs to see what domino is in there. The white square at the back is good and the front does have some semi translucent parts where you can make out the name or the number of the character. As we didn't open the packs we were able to trade them back to store for another lot of random packs. Managed to complete a set for the Autobub that way.

    You still got those spares and can I swing by and pick them up sometime this week?

    EDIT: Just checked with the wife, only after 32 if you've still got it?

    You wouldn't happen to have 12 as a spare would you?

    Default Star Domino Wanted Please

    My son Thomas is autistic and obsessive about collecting the domino, which we only found out about recently at his speech/occupational therapy session, where another young child had them.
    Since then he has constantly asked for some, but we haven’t shopped at Woolworths prior this promotion and have only just started.
    We have managed to get from a friend and shopping number 1 and have 4 spares, 22, 28 and have a spare, 29 and have 2 spare, 33, 38 and have 2 spare and 42.
    Anyone interested in swapping anything for the above, or willing to donate them to a young boy, who would be over the moon to receive some more dominos.
    Happy to pay for postage
