for the old-timers: Tim Tams available at Target!
« on: November 23, 2008, 09:33:36 am »
Thank you to Cheryl R. for the heads up!

http://www.businesswire.com/portal/site/home/permalink/?ndmViewId=news_view&newsId=20081111006131&newsLang=en

Target is selling Tim Tams in the U.S. (under the Pepperidge Farm name) through March 2009!  I've been looking in all my local ones, but they've always been out of stock.   :'(  But I'm not giving up.  I WILL FIND THEM!!!!!  These have now hit pregnancy-craving status for me and are a must have!  LOL!

TimTam Alert! TimTam Alert! Tim Tam Alert!

The PBW must be hard at work plundering every Target in the US of A!
Congrats on the impending arrival of new scallywagger or wenchette! Which Pirate name are YOU choosing--Laura chose Capt Morgan!

Katie

That's great!  I don't think I've even heard mention of the Tim Tams since the 70's on Myrtle Beach.  Looks like I may have to do some searching.

Katie -

I had no clue what a Tim Tam was until I looked at your link.  Hope you find some soon - they sound delicious.

Also, don't know how I missed this one, but I see congratulations are in order.  Baby #3 due in April  ;D  You must be thrilled  ;D

Am I reading your signature line correct?  Are you expecting another boy? 

Sorry for the hijack,

I've never heard of them either - Jan, I guess this means we're not old!   ;D  They do sound really good though - I'll be on the lookout for them.

And Katie - congratulations to you!  How exciting!  Hope you're feeling well - aside from the Tim Tam craving!

Hope your boys are excited about the new baby coming!  Ugh...having two older brothers sounds rough to me!   :D

Tim Tams were a BIG topic of conversations around these boards (and fuel for the PBW!) about when I was recovering from my surgery.  They're Australian (chocolate dipped chocolate cookies, but so much more than just that!) and are somewhat hard to locate in the U.S.  But I got hooked on them, and was so happy when Cheryl pointed out that they're available in Target now! 

As for my impending arrival, we don't know if it's boy or girl and won't until birth day.  I'm a bit over half-way cooked and finally feeling good, though I don't expect that to last!  LOL!  My 6yo is very excited because he gets a new, bigger bedroom out of the whole deal!  Otherwise, they're both rather non-nonplussed by the whole thing.  Though that will probably change when a screaming baby invades the house and takes up all my time!   ::)

Yeah, Katie!          You got some!         I did find more the other day too so they might even be a Christmas present for a few relatives.            My other like this time of year is Sees candy which has a booth at a mall till Xmas.      I do give some gifts of those.

You are too funny Capt Deb!

Katie - I think it's great you are not finding out the sex! My little boy is two months old now and he was a surprise too :) it makes the best gift!

Enjoy those Tim Tams. I got some at Target about two weeks ago... 6 boxes to be exact. I'm happy to say they are all gone although my butt isn't all that happy about it :(.

Katie,

where did you find them locally? Tar-get?  There is one in Woburn that I can check... also Danvers... not sure which sell food items.  They are local?  w00t! :)
