With fathers day approaching this years Macs biscuit tins are starting to hit the shelves. Found the large 350g XY GT in Reject shop this morn @$8 and small 125g XY and XW GT in Coles @$3. Theres meant to be a 350g XC Cobra, haven't found that yet, Woolies and Red dot normally get a batch so maybe they'll be there.
Bonus the biccies aren't bad either so thats smoko's taken care of for a while.

Thanks, I'll try some. Haven't seen these before so I googled them, nice.
Good to see a country Victorian, Aussie made and owned company.

Trying to get some pics up but the computers not talking to the camera today, will have to wait for the missus to come home and fix it.
Heres the link https://macsshortbread.com.au/galler...0g-gift-tin/18 Theres Holden ones too if you're that way inclined, I think Macs owner may be a petrol head

I bought a Kenworth one today at Yarrawonga, Vic and looked through all of the display but no XC Cobra.
As you said there are quite a few Holden ones.

The biscuits have a long shelf-life so it's easy to buy them when they are on sale and save them up. They really make an awesome gift.

If anyone's still looking for the XC Cobra I found it in the Reject shop today.
In previous years different retailers got different allocations so they maybe the place to try.

The 2018 tins are starting to make their way out at the moment.
Found the Yellow XY GT and Red XW GT, large tins in woolworths today. Theres a John Goss special coming in the small tins, should be in coles soon as part of fathers day promotions.

I scored this Allan Moffat Special a few years ago, haven't seen one since.
Bad photo, looks better in real life.

Picked this one up from Coles this morn, for $3 you can't go wrong.
It was the last one on the shelf, they go pretty quick so grab them when you see them. Theres another release at christmas so you do get a second chance if you miss them at fathers day.
