Found this Pitcher yesterday at Marshalls. While it's a little too cartoon like for my tastes, this is Vermont, and I'll take what I can get! Comes complete with "Beachcomber Charlie's Tropical Lemonade Collection. All yours for only $14.99. While there I also picked up 3 of the "Tiki Dee Dee Sets"(?!?) made by the same company as the Moai and Bastard Bottles. Notice the nice Tower of Pisa lean on the Brown and Blue ones.

Those "Tiki Dee Dee Sets" look suspiciously like Tiki Farm economy tiki mugs, perhaps not actual copies but definatly rippped off/inspired by.

Hey thanks for the info, The Wife and I took a pass on the "Tiki Dee Dee" stuff, but did finally get ourselves the Moai and Suffering bastard bottles. (we got the strawberry and the Margarita mixes, and took a pass on the 3 bean version LOL)
We didn't find the pitcher at Marshalls, but did score up two of them at TJ MAXX (Marshals sister store) One in electric lime green, and one in yellow. Just gotta love that monster green!!! My wife has named the new pitcher "Froggy tiki" (he does look a bit like a frog......)
Thanks for the info
Jay

Theres one of the Tiki Sets that has a purple mug that is almost an exact copy of the purple mug in the econo pack.
The Brown mug is remarkably heavy for such a small mug.
The big problem with the sets is that the mug is so close to the glass bottle of mix, and the sugar bottle is inside of the mug, which leads to cracked and chipped mugs. Iw wanted one of the green ones, but all three I found were chipped, and in one case cracked in half.
Still, good little no worry mugs for guests to use.

I picked up a couple of these and they do look like lower qual knock offs of the Tiki Farm econo mugs (which I also have), especially the purple one which you don't have pictured. Thing is, these were 5.99 each and the Tiki Farm mugs, which are larger and of much better quality, are only 4.99 each at Hilo Hattie's. Haven't found the pitcher yet.

I'm a big boy, I can handle it. I'll even do the "Truffle Shuffle" afterward.

Has anyone spotted any of this stuff at Winners (the Canadian equivalent of TJ Maxx/Marshalls)?
I saw ones Schoenfelds product awhile back. It was a maragarita set with a crypto-Tiki bowl shaped like an avocado. I'd have picked it up if it wasn't expensive and ugly.
