They had these same Tiki mug lanterns last year. I put them out on our window ledge for Halloween. All of the kids who came by trick'o'treating thought they were really cool. Just don't use them for making a Mai Tai! :wink:

I know there isn't a lot of love for JoAnn's in this thread as of late, but if it's any consolation, there was no sign of the hated Tiki hooks at my local store in New Jersey. I'm sure they're on their way :( but for now they are nowhere to be found. I did, however, find a trio of Tiki tea light holders.

They look like Tiki mugs only with cut outs in them for the flickering light to shine through. Needless to say, these guys can't hold their liquor. There were three color choices to choose from, pale orange, sky blue, and jade green, along with three designs in each color. So, you could buy one of each design in a single color or the same design in all three colors. I opted for one of each color, as well as one of each design for the most variety.

The retail price was only $9.99 but in true JoAnn's fashion, all of their new summer stuff was on sale even before it was all stocked on the floor. At 40% off each, the final cost per tea light holder was around $5.99. Not bad, eh? :D

Check 'em out in action:

Peace,
Peter
