Hi, can anyone help me please. we are looking for a set of figures - Mary, Joseph and a baby Jesus, for our grandchildren. They must be plastic and inexpensive so breakages wont matter. Iv looked everywhere in Tauranga. If anyone knows where I can get some or can get some for us it would be wonderful. We expect to pay around $5 as we bought some a few years ago for less than that.
Do hope someone can help.
Regards, Jeanette

I guess that by everywhere you have even looked in Christian Book shops??? How about ringing a church and asking them if they know where you might get some.

Just a thought.

Have a nice day!

A Christian book shop or Trade aid shop

We have tried Christian bookshops, but they are mainly in a set, not individual pieces, and they are also china and expensive. We have also tried $2 shops and op shops. Havent tried Trade Aid yet though. Thats a good idea, thanks. Also asking our church.
Thanks for your help.

Try Farmers - I was in there in the weekend and they had some nativity figures - I am not sure how much they were or if they were plastic though sorry!

Not much help I'm afraid!

Cheers, Wilma

Have you looked in Bernies Bazzar over at the Mount or to save time give them a ring and see if they have them. Also apart from the $2 shop did you look in the shop opposite the Farmers. I cant think what its called but its a cheap cheap shop that sells everything.
