Definitely the coolest thing I could find there. Check their tiny kid section (a few bins with novelty toys) and also check clearance. I had to go to several stores to get the whole set and one store had them in clearance and another had them still in kiddie bins, but marked down. The third had them for the full price ($1) in kid bins.

Done with Pier One for awhile now. Nothing else there interested me. If you can't find them there, I also found a few on amazon, but I am sadly forgetting the name now. Wish I had not tossed the tags on these. The bad thing with the amazon listing was the pick was random. You could not pick which ones.

I'll be picking these up. So neat, but I think it's going to go faster now that the news is out.

In case you cannot find them at Pier One, I finally found the Amazon listing (slightly more expensive, but still cheap):

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007BDK5F4/

There are 12 different ones total: 3 colors (green, blue, red) in 4 different styles.

(P.S., Not trying to claim credit, just saying these have been out for a while now.)

. . . . i like 'em but the Pier One near me only had a few damaged ones left :(

They are made of that really soft and squidgy rubber that a lot of novelty toy-makers are using now.
I'd prefer them in a harder vinyl, but hey, for their bargain price they are still cool . . . . .

Yep no luck here as of yet. The sales lady basically gave us a strange blank look when we asked and went on to tell us the sale on throw pillows. :lol:

Just saw one loner with no price tag at a Cracker Barrel in TN...looked like it had been handled many times :x If I had seen this thread earlier I would have asked about them since they def caught my eye too! So it may be worth a check at your local hillbilly hangout :wink:

I forgot about Cracker Barrel! They had them here too. I bought these a month ago and now I remember I found the last one that I could not find at Pier one at cracker barrel. I am not that terribly old, but my memory is awful.
