So I went to buy petrol yesterday, leaving it to the last minute which I never do.
We were leaving an engagement party going to a birthday party and I just happened to drive past a Shell. It was packed and we were late, I almost left but decided to stay.

When I went into pay and saw the word 'Smurf', I had to contain myself from yelling "LOOK CHECK IT OUT OH MY GOD HAVE YOU SEEN THIS!!!!"
I calmy took one and went to the counter......

Then when we got to the birthday party I showed everyone ...."Look what I got at the Shell!" .......... no one cared but I didn't care that they didn't care cause I knew you guys would share my excitement.

I know of at least another 2:

One with the smurfette on the cover and one with another papa smurf on the cover. They seem to have come out in Australia to help the promotions of the DVD with multi episodes on them (DVD 1 to 7 so far maybe more by now)

I think they are 8cm diameter DVDs (3" and a bit)

They appear on eBay from time to time...

Cheers,

David

Theres 4 at the moment I think (Look at the bottom of David's..it says collect all 4). They're the same ones I found in Coles and are also for sale at Target and Kmart I think. (All FlyBuys companies you see). I also saw some similar Care Bear ones at our local BP...didn't have time to rummage through and see if there were smurf ones too.

Hmmm I wonder if Jen's is the newer version as it doesn't have the "4" on there anymore :sherlock:

ahh! Jen thats the one I need! Plus the other on the back of the packaging. I haven't been able to find these 2 anywhere. And these 2 were released in September. I will try my local BP this week!!

There are 6 of these mini-dvd singles out. I have the first 4 and have been searching for the last 2 for months.

Smurfs - Smurfette's Dancing Shoes (Smurfette cover)
Smurfs - St Smurf And The Dragon (Papa Smurf cover)
Smurfs - The Magnifying Mixture (Brainy Smurf cover)
Smurfs - The Sorcerer Smurf(Gargamel cover)
Smurfs - The Adventures Of Robin Smurf (Vanity cover)
Smurfs - Every Picture Smurfs A Story (Artist Smurf cover)

Thanks for the tip off!

From Brad

Thanks Brad. I knew you would know. I knew there were 4 to begin with and had a sneaking suspicion that there were more coming. Jen said she got hers at Shell NOT BP Brad so try there first.

I thought Shell was BP? I guess not. I'm not sure.
And I can't think of where any local Shell stations are.
Will have to take a look around.

Thanks

Brad.
