This week Coles announced Little Shop 2 is returning to stores, shortly after Woolworths hit back with their own promotion, Lion King Ooshies.
Both promotions are similar, they have collector cases, you spend $30 to get a collectable and they both start this Wednesday July 17.
Households around the country are being torn with BOTH promotions starting on the same day.
There will be one group of people who decide which promotion wins - KIDS!
The Little Shop promotion was a huge success for Coles in 2018, the company reported an increase in profits directly linked to the hysteria created by shoppers desperate to complete their collections.
An online poll has Lion King way in front of Little Shop 2.

“Woolies looks way better id rather Lion King collectables But I'm a Coles shopper May have to switch Sorry Coles”, said one shopper.
“I'm torn where to shop!! Kids will probably want the Ooshies!”, added another.
