    My local Woolworths said the promotion ends today ?

    Anyway, if you wouldn't mind helping me out, I would really appreciate it.

    The ones I need are:

    3 - Jessie
    4 - Alien
    9 - Bullseye
    16 - Boo
    18 - Mr Incredible
    24 - Heimlich
    30 - Carl
    38 - Mater
    40 - Sally

    Thanks!

    My collection of 255, which shows the massive difference of some that only have 1-3, compared to others that have 10-12... when statistically, the greater a sample gets, the more averaged out it is supposed to get. (in theory)

    Yes, March 4th to April 14th - from the Ts & Cs.

    It doesn't say it in the T&Cs, but I imagine that the promotion ends earlier at a store that runs out, unless they ship in more Dominoes to cover themselves until the 14th.

    Not sure what they'll do with spares though, as there is no mention of it anywhere.

    I foresee employees flogging them off on ebay.
    The more generous cashiers tend to just give a handful of the things if you just ask for some when these promotions are nearly over though.

    It will cost $1.40 to post. Found out the maximum thickness for $0.70 postage is 5 mm. The dominoes are 7 mm. The maximum weight at $1.40 is 125 g.

    Just wanting to note a few things I found at at Woolies tonight.

    - the store near me was down to the last two boxes of Dominoes, and told me that many other stores have already run out of Dominoes... which is probably why all mention of the promotion was taken down off their website.

    - the register screen flashed up a notice that this Saturday was a trading day from 10am to 2pm, but one of the attendants said that it was an automated notice on their screens... so not all stores may do it.

    - the store near me already had a big box of opened Dominoes (about two hundred) at their customer service desk for people to swap with... so if you are missing some, take your spares and ask at your nearest Woolies at the Customer Service desk if they have any trading dominoes.


    If you fail to complete your set from the options in those last two notes, and you are still wanting to spend money on postage both ways, I'm still happy to trade spares.

    Thanks for letting me know about the Saturday swap. I have now completed my daughter's set this way and used my remaining spares to help my nephew complete his.

    I can help out, but I'd prefer to wait until the promotion ends next week, so that you don't end up getting the ones you are missing, just at the same time as you are posting spares across the country.

    After thinking about it, and after Kovert send me a message to do a trade by post, I'm now offering to trade with anyone who who has no other alternative (like a trading day at their local Woolies... which most usually have at the end of these promotions).

    Below are my spares, and if you want to trade, post here which ones you want, and which ones you are going to trade back to me (so that I can update the list of incoming Dominoes for anyone else wanting them). I will PM you my postal address and you MUST include in the envelope with your Dominoes, a self-addressed envelope WITH postage, for me to post back to you the Dominoes you want.
    That way I can trade with other people who can't pickup (who are still welcome to trade in person).

    I will prioritise those people already posted in this topic, if they post here again before April 10th with their current list of missing Dominoes and can't find anyone else to trade with in person (to save them postage costs). Other people can post their trade list before April 10th, but I will not start processing them until after that date (to give you more time to get the ones you are missing without paying extra for it).

    (Domino number - quantity I have spare)
    1 - 9
    2 - 7
    3 - 3
    4 - 3
    5 - 4
    6 - 11
    7 - 4
    8 - 11
    9 - 6
    10 - 4
    11 - 6
    12 - 5
    13 - 5
    14 - 2 (plus 1 expected from Kovert)
    15 - 3
    16 - 7
    17 - 4
    18 - 3 (plus 1 expected from Kovert)
    19 - 3
    20 - 3
    21 - 8
    22 - 5
    23 - 7
    24 - 7
    25 - 8
    26 - 5
    27 - 5
    28 - 3
    29 - 4
    30 - 3
    31 - 6 (1 on hold for Kovert)
    32 - 11
    33 - 6
    34 - 2
    35 - 6
    36 - 2
    37 - 6
    38 - 7
    39 - 4
    40 - 7 (1 on hold for Kovert)
    41 - 9
    42 - 1
    43 - 3
    44 - 6

    (numbers should be correct, but after trading starts, accuracy might be affected if people send different numbers to the ones they listed)

    When trading, if you have a lot of spares, please offer/send dominoes that I have the least spares of, so that I don't run out of more numbers before I can help others.
