I know in my case. I can go into a thrift store 100 times and might find 1 item in those 100 visits. "Finding" stuff on ebay and tikifarm.com just is not as exciting. Yeah, this is a crappy blue made in China mug with a fairly crappy rum but at least I "found" it. No it won't go on the high shelf with the expensive mugs both past and present but it will be in my bar somewhere. Most likely will be the one I let Big Jim use when he visits as he is a pain in the ass and gets to drunk and clumsy. So if it gets broke, no big deal.

The solution to this problem might be we get after Tommy Bahama and make sure they get their next run of mugs from Tiki Farm. That email was the first one I sent when I opened the box and saw the mug was from China.
