Oh, I know you can get timtams in the USA at several specialty stores, but its actually cheaper to just send them from Aus even when you factor in the high cost of shipping.
To illustrate. A 200g block of Cadbury Dairy Milk costs $8.95 US from that store, or $10 Aus. The same chocolate costs $3 Aus from pretty much anywhere in Australia.
When I ship a box of timtams at a time, the savings are considerable.
