Trick or Treat ... or Surprise?🥚🐊🦓🐨

I had been trying to get the koala in the Kinder Surprise animal egg collection on my trips to the supermarket when I do my grocery shopping, with no luck so far this year.

Apparently, there are only 16 baby animals to collect and besides the koala, and I'm still to run across the elephant and the hippo in the set, as well.

In my latest horrendous run of luck after getting my first polar bear, I got 6 straight crocodiles in a row, with that run only to be stopped by getting my third ever turtle.
I've already given away just as many crocodiles pictured above and gave five of those six pictured above last week to a children's lucky dip bin in the Op Shop I volunteer in.

Ironically, I started buying the Kinder Surprise Joy Vet series to see what I would get and Thursday I donated my elephant to the children's lucky dip bin in the Op Shop, because the band aides kept coming unstuck, and then on the way home, I buy my third ever Kinder Surprise Joy Vet series egg to get another elephant, which will be headed to the children's lucky dip bin in the Op Shop in the egg for some lucky kid (or parent) to assemble:-)

But one good thing to come out of my trip to the supermarket last Thursday was I bought two Gumi Yums and got my zebra in one of them, so it's game over for my Gumi Yum animal series egg buying days now.

The other Gumi Yum animal was the rabbit again, so that one is off to the children's lucky dip bin in the Op Shop next week as well>:-)

So, how long is it going to take me to get my f#cking Kinder Surprise baby koala ... or even a baby elephant for that matter?-)

Bit of a nightmare result for the Sky Blues on Halloween at the hands feet of Wrexham, which I'm sure will make the next season of their Disney+ soap opera:-)
