OK I'll admit it....I quite liked the Woolies Dominoes when I got a stack of them with my groceries, that I decided that for once I'd try and collect them. (Usually I don't bother hence the bits and pieces of Oz animals, Jamie's cards and goodness knows what else langushing in a plastic bag somewhere).
However I made it difficult for myself by not colleting the Disney characters but just the domino pips so I'd have a full set to play the traditional game. I managed to get a few from friends then I had to turn to eBay where I found more.
And now I'm down to just one more to collect. Only problem is, on eBay of course sellers are listing them by the characters. Only a few mention the backs. Thankfully some of them I have messaged checked their stock for me and I was able to buy from them....but that last darn domino is proving most elusive! I've emailed a few more sellers but no luck so far.
Is there anyone out there with a spare Double Five? Help!

Bloody hell.
Thanks have been said (as pointed out) but my final post is pending because the story isn't over yet until the last domino arrives.

Its here if you need it
The last domino has finally arrived!
Thank you very much daydream believer for keeping one for me just in case....I reckon having a back up plan struck a blow for Murphy's Law.
I've enjoyed reading (nearly) all the replies....but I wonder what Woolies will come up with next? Whatever it is.....I must resist the impulse to collect.
For me the domino story still has a few things in the pipeline. I've got plans to cover the backs (no more Disney) and I've got a box to make to store them. Should be fun. I like doing craft stuff.

They're clearing the handy folder to store them in - $2 each
Also the tins are going cheap

No thanks. I've bought them to play dominoes, not collect all the backs, so I don't have 'all' the series.. I want to put mine in a box like you'd have for a toy store bought game of dominoes.
