Aussie Ponies! Have you seen the school friends pack?

[bagheera86]

Okay I've seen the twilight/spike/Celestia packs, everywhere, and they were the same price as the School friends bff pack with Cheerilee. But I went to K-mart to find that, they are $25. Is that normal? Has anyone seen them cheaper anywhere... Or at all? I need it but, I don't want to pay more than I have to for it @_@

Normal for me, when they were first in stock at Toy World they were $25. I think that's a markup though as they went down to $20 in other shops and someone in another thread just reported as low as $15.

[hathorcat]

Gosh! At $25 that set is just a tough more expensive than here...sometimes even with shipping its cheaper to buy from the US isnt it?

[Spike]

Yeah but Kmart can't price their items for crap. Take the hot air balloon for example. Everywhere else is like $40, but at Kmart it's like $14.

[hathorcat]

$14 for the balloon? Wow...and thats not just on sale? The balloon was a 2010-11 product so its pretty old - whenever I see it over here on random occasions its always at clearance prices.

I've seen the balloon at Cheap As Chips earlier in the year for about $15. School friends, I've never seen for less than $20.

Where is 'Cheap as Chips?'

[Princess-Sparkles]

I bought the school friends set I think for $20 at most ages ago.

I think my Kmart still has one or two balloons... Unless they were bought for Christmas. Ponies can sit around for years over here.

Meanwhile, in the south, single pony packs were decimated in the lead-up to Christmas

I thought they had outlets all over Australia. Looking at their store locations, it looks like it might be mostly a South Australia and Victoria thing. They're basically a chain dollar store.

Yeah I know.. some ponies are so expensive. Here they're $20 at Big W, $25 at target and everywhere else.
