Cool finds Kahuna.
I used to hit the thrift stores alot (especially when I was building my Hawaiian record collection), and still stop in on occassion, but I'm finding it increasingly hard to find anything that justifies the time, miles on the car or gasoline burned.
After collecting tiki for two years, I've located a couple of antique shops that never seem to disappoint. I accept the fact that I have to pay a higher price than at a thrift store (mugs usually go for about $10), but I generally come home with something worthwhile. Of course, now that I'm not looking in the thrifts, I probably missed a box with three suffering bastard mugs and a decanter for $5.
