snookymom Posted March 14, 2010 #602 Share Posted March 14, 2010 We have been emptying our freezer in the garage in preparation for getting rid of it. Today I went out to see what is left & there is 1 pack of chicken & 6 packs of Tim Tams. I hid them out ther in a effort to forget them for a while. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroncosFan2010 Posted March 14, 2010 #604 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I am making a special effort to locate these today when I go grocery shopping. I have a few speciality shops that I think might sell them! They look amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucky3 Posted March 15, 2010 #606 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I found Tim Tams at a nearby Target here in Northern Ca about two months ago. Since then I have looked each time we go to Target (often!) and have not seen them since. They were even on sale when I bought them for $2.50 a package if I remember. I should have emptied the shelf !! I wonder if this was just another trial or if they are so popular they just sell out quickly? I'll keep checking - love those things!!

joandian Posted May 31, 2010 #612 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I'm an Aussie living in Texas and 'TimTams' are available from Target and even though they say they are made in Australia, they don't taste the same as genuine Aussie Tim Tams. I used to stock up when I was back home but now I buy all my Aussie goodes online at About Australia http://www.about-australia-shop.com/ or Simply Australian http://www.simplyoz.com/ Both are great stores and very reliable.

Jo When we went over in Feb we took our own so we didn't actually look for them in the stores, let alone taste any of the Pepperidge Farms product. Interesting to know that you think they aren't quite the same. We will be back in November and it looks like we will take them with us again. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillian marie Posted June 2, 2010 #614 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I saw them in a grocery in Kiawah Island, SC. I'd look for a high end grocery that has alot of specialty foods. You may also just start calling groceries and ask them if they can order this. I've gotten specialty items that way. You may have to buy a case though.

Pennyfarthing Posted June 22, 2010 #615 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Hi, I'm not replying to this message but tim tams was the only way I could think of to find you on Cruise Critic (still learning how to use it) Hopefully you will remember us. Penny & Dave from Dunelm House B&B. We've booked our first cruise, Seabourn Pride August 10th from Kobe, Japan to Shanghai. Can't wait. What do you do about all the different currencies needed?

Penny & Dave from Dunelm House B&B. We've booked our first cruise, Seabourn Pride August 10th from Kobe, Japan to Shanghai. Can't wait. What do you do about all the different currencies needed? Penny & Dave (Pennyfarthing) Hi Penny, Glad you found me! Have you sold the B & B yet? Wow, choosing the Seabourn Pride for your first cruise (not Dave LOL), you will certainly be spoilt. Glad you didn't go with P & O. We booked another cruise for November on Celebrity Constellation so we are getting all geared up for that one. That is in the Caribbean for 14 days. Then next May we will be in Asia/Alaska and Canada on Diamond Princess. You will have to let me know what you think of Seabourn. We are thinking of Azamara in the future. They have some really good itineraries. You will find heaps of information on this forum. You will get hooked but it is amazing what you will learn. Go onto the roll call section and join your rollcall, make friends before you go and you can organise private tours and save heaps of money. (the tours are better too) Our tenants in Bundaberg have given notice so it is up for rent again. They move out on 30th June so we still have time to find someone.

Pennyfarthing Posted June 24, 2010 #617 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Wow, you must be looking forward to your cruises they sound fantastic. These might seem like silly questions but not having been on a cruise ship before we are don't know whether the ship can change our money into the currency we are visiting or if we have to arrange money beforehand. Also, plugs, which do they use or do they differ on different cruise lines. I have already been in touch with one guy who's going on our ship because I posted a roll call and he answered it. sorry about your renter I hope you find someone soon.

Penny The ship will be able to change AUD into other currency but the exchange rate will be pretty lousy. I would just get a small amount of currency in Australia and then use a credit card on the major purchases. Have you heard about the Wizard Clear Advantage Mastercard? It has no fees or charges on overseas purchases and no yearly fees. We use this card for our overseas travel. Look into it and compare how much your bank charges for overseas purchases and you will see how good this card is. I believe it is the only card in australia with no fees and charges. In regards to the plugs - yes you will need an adaptor. Usually a USA converter, you can buy them anywhere around $10. We have an extension cord with a two powerpoint board and use that. We find the two points enough to charge laptop, camera, video camera, shaver etc. Any other questions let me know. I did post on your rollcall and will drop in now and again to say hello.

If it gets any colder I will have to consider putting the heater on, haven't had to yet this year. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
