WOW! Good price! We'll check there!

Wait a minute dosen't Big Lots only sell products that aren't moving etc.? We've drank this coffee a lot and find it a very high quality. Have heard a lot of positive comments on it from others. Also think the price isn't bad either.....Why wouldn't it be selling????

Anyway, thanks for posting info on this? If you see it anywhere else let us all know.

Great to hear Target is carrying the brand! We haven't seen it at any Target stores in PA this season. We will check a few stores this week. Hopefully will find them then. Most times this area in all the stores (Target, WalMart, Lowes, etc) are slower at getting products out for summer than most other locations. We'll go looking and let you know what we find.

Gotta love Target! Thanks Molly and Ryan!!

Stopped to check out Big Lots. In the store I was in I thought their supply of tropical items were greatly reduced compared to the last several years. So I'd like you to check out your local Big Lots stores and let me know what you think.

I did find a really cool wall tinsel wall hanging 3D Margarita glass with lime wedge. This would be good for a tailgate or any Tiki Bar!! Price: $8.00


Also found were Tiki Head plant pots. Price: $14

Another favorite of mine is the metal tki hut bird houses with hand painted surf boards. Price: $12

There were also a nice supply of leis and beads, out door dishes.

Tropical flower plastic table cloths: $1.00
