Woolworths Meerkat Statues Are Back and Selling Out Fast - here’s why they’re so popular!

When it comes to home décor, there are endless ways to add some flair and character to your living space.

One way to do this is by incorporating figurines into your design scheme. Figurines can add a touch of whimsy, sophistication, or even quirkiness to your home, depending on your personal style.

Also, there's something about a stylish figurine that just makes it irresistible to collectors. They always seem to sell out fast, no matter how many are made. Whether it's a limited edition or a one-of-a-kind, these pieces are always in high demand.



That's why it is not surprising that Woolworths has restocked one of its most popular items to date: the highly collectible garden meerkat statues.

The meerkat figurines, which are currently priced at $10 to $18 each, are already sending customers into a frenzy, with numerous characters selling out online.

These 22cm tall meerkat figurines are individually dressed as iconic characters in meerkat form, spanning a variety of professions and interests, including doctors, paramedics, firefighters, police officers, tradespeople, and artists.

There are also meerkat figurines that are inspired by famous film and entertainment franchises, such as Harry Potter-inspired design, an Elvis-inspired Cord the Singer, and Daska Intergalactic Warrior!

Other stylish designs that customers can choose from include Struan the Scot, Willow the Witch, Rose the Valentine Meerkat, Grenadier the Guard, Abigail the Meerkat Beach Dancer, Donald the Meerkat Pilot, and many more.



The demand for these figures has increased over the past four years, with 2020 selling the equivalent amount of stock as 2019 in the first week.

Approximately 150,000 meerkat figurines are expected to be sold this Spring, according to Woolworths.

So if you're looking for a unique gift (or just a fun addition to your own collection), be sure to check out the Woolworths website or your nearest store. But hurry – these meerkats are flying off the shelves!

We've got possums too, and kangaroos, snakes and I don't know what else, the joys of living in the country!:)
We live in suburbia Roselands and not that close to bush. All my neighbours have possums which eat all our vegetables n salad.

Today working though a track in Riverwood a fox ran across our path. Further down we needed to cross a road to continue on the path and another fox but a dead one.

I'm surprised how many animals we are seeing.

I also think driving home a few weeks ago late at night a bandicoot ran in front of us. It was very long with a pointed nose

Bandicoots are inquisitive, if I go out and stand quietly they will come out and sniff around my feet, haven't been able to touch one yet though!:)

You possibly need to be a Sir Richard Attenborough to achieve that Ricci. Seems to be something about him that he attracts all animals. Lucky man.
 
It s hard enough to get rid of all the things I have without adding to them! too many things too good to go into landfill, but selling them online or even giving them away for free is too much work, charity bins are gone, and the op shops want mainly "new" things... So I ve started by telling my friends to only give me "experiences" for my birthday etc... but now people have started giving presents like mugs, t shirts, blankets etc to my DOG😂😂😂
Too funny.
