OK just found at our local Giant Eagle grocery store here in PA.

Coca Cola classic 12 pack carton of cans. The Come Out and Play collection!!

flip flops
beach ball
sail boat

All three pics are on the box but we only got the flip flop design on the cans. It was our favorite design of the three but would still like to get a carton of each so we can have a set with all three designs. I think the design on the cans is on the end flap.

Price: $4.99

Also found at our local Giant Eagle grocery store in the floral department.

TY Beanie Babies with a tropical floral design.

a pink flamingo named Tiki with hibiscus flowers

a Hawaiian girl wearing a grass skirt, flip flops and carrying a beach ball named Wailea.

Price: $5.99

I am not sure if they are new this year but it is the first time I remember seeing them.

You might also want to check your local Hallmark store for these. Our Hallmarks shops carry TY beanies.

We had fun looking at these sites.

In the isleoftiki site we really like the salt and pepper shakers of the tiki bar and the dancers. Think we will be adding those to the collection. Also found some tropical coasters.

Thanks for posting these.

Over the weekend saw individual Coca Cola cans with in the cooler by the check out of a local grocery store Giant Eagle. Anyway, noticed the logo was inside a pair of sunglasses. I really like this new summer theme. Just wish PA had gotten it on the shelves early in the season and not the end of Aug. Still beter late than never.

OK we are looking for cat tropical themed t-shirts. Have a friend who loves cats as well as the tropics and JB. Want to get her the shirts for either her birthday or Christmas.

I know we have a couple t's we got in Mexico. One is of a group of cats walking on a beach. They are dressed in bathing suits.

Another one is of cats on a beach laying on a beach blanket with bottles of sun tan oil.

Let me know if you have seen anything like this and if you know where we can buy them.

Thanks.
