    Elf on the Shelf - anyone know where to get it?

    I'm trying to get a copy of the Elf on the Shelf book for the girls for Christmas. Does anyone know if there is anywhere in Sydney that I can get it??

    I looked everywhere for an Aussie supplier, but I could only find one online (we live in Central Oz, so real shopping isn't an option) at Angus and Robertson, but it was double the price of the Book Depository.

    Yep, another vote for Book Depository here. They've got 25% off the usual price

    Book Depository here too. I've never seen one in a book shop and I buy all my books online these days.

    If you make an account and they know you're in Australia, you'll be shown the $AU prices It is a UK site but its free postage worldwide AND the books usually arrive insanely fast

    Cool, I'll check it out some more. The books seem very cheap. Do you need PayPal?

    Nope you can pay with credit card. I have never had any problem with book depository. Only time I buy books in a store now is if I want it that week cause I've been unorganised

    Another UK based site is AbeBooks and they list new and secondhand books from all over the world. I've bought books through them that come from a bookseller 15 mins down the road, the US and the UK. Especially good if you want something hard to find or no longer in print.

    I could browse the antique and first edition section all day!
