I buy the ones that look kinda tiki to me, but personally I kinda dig those civilations too. OH yeah, when buying items from Big Lots and other stores. Think to yourself: "Self.. would that look cool in my swag bar?" If ou pick up the smileing pitcher with the sun shades... you maybe taking home a demon in disguise. The type that breaks your worthy tiki mugs. PS In my book, there is no shame in buying plastic mugs and Big Lots/TJ Max/etc. ceramic mugs. They are good to give away to party goers and butter fingered drunks. The plastic ones are good if you have kids and underagged drinkers come to a party as well. That way you can keep tabs on what they should be drinking. Plus it may inspire them to collect in the future. -one man aspiring to be everyone’s favorite unkle. http://www.unklejohn.com My Tiki Lounge http://unklejohn.suddenlaunch.com/index.cgi [ Edited by: Unkle John on 2005-06-23 22:17 ]
