The lineups are getting ridiculous.

Yes, they are pretty good cookies. The cans are cute and they make pretty good (albeit heavy) gifts. There are counterfeits available everywhere and resellers are marking up the cans by 100 HKD per can.

Lineup on Monday was easily a couple hundred people which supposedly started at 7 am. I arrived at 8:30 am and the lineup was already half way down the street.

Finally get to the end of the line and they are sold out of the cookies I want and ended up settling for the butter cookies.

Now they have a maximum of 5 tins per adult and they tell you that if you want to buy more, come back tomorrow. (I needed 6 tins) - sigh

Is there any other decent gifts (uniquely Hong Kong) options without this hassle?
