I also stopped at a nearby Dollar Tree store - I think these tikis are pretty cool, especially for a buck. I may go back and try to buy more - it would be neat to be able to hand a free tiki to the kids of some of my friends when they visit.

The clerk here (in Northern VA) also said these things were selling like crazy, and they have only been on the shelves for less than a week.

My Dollar Tree also had some pretty realistic looking resin palm trees. These stand about 6 inches tall, have translucent water, and some of the coconuts are brown, and some of them are green. They had about 6-7 different varieties of these palm trees - also for $1 each. I think these will look great as a background edge behind or besides some of my other tiki stuff.

I also got some real bamboo placemats, and some kitchen/bar towels with palm trees on them - again, only $1 each.

Oh, I stopped at a thrift and found a video of the 1979 Linda Blair film 'Roller Boogie - damn thrift charged me $3 for it.
