I just reread the "Bitter Fans" thread about how commercialized this whole parrothead experience has became/become and it got me to thinking about what Margaritaville products we actually do like, which ones do live up to their hype and high price tags.
Me, I love the Frozen concoction maker. Landshark Lager is as good of a beer as I have ran across but then again I haven't found many beers that I do like.

Oh and as for the other they need to sell....post it up and lets see what they offer in the next year.
I would like an official Margaritaville musical cooler, water proof with a CD/MP3 player and satelite hookup for carrying your food drinks and music to the beach, on the boat or on the deck.
If the price isn't too much.

That would be nice. Sign me up for one.

I would like to see more home/patio decorative goodies. We've decorated kinda Buffett/Tommy Bahama cross.

We love our Margaritaville Outdoor Beach Chairs. I wish they offered a matching 100 SPF Umbrella.

I do not purchase much M'ville stuff myself. Instead I fill my gift lists up with it and other tropical themed stuff. My 2 favorite M'ville items are the Frozen Drink Maker and the Tailgate Grill. Both are used on a regular basis.

I don't have much M'ville stuff. I just can't afford most of it when a cheaper item is there. I do have a few t-shirts, I really like Landshark, and the M'ville Teas (when I can find them).

Love my flipflops, use the FCM regularly, own some t-shirts. Love your cooler idea, I'd buy one. Would probably love the sunglasses, but I'm pretty rough on sunglasses and can't justify the cost. I'd like to stay at the hotel, at least once. Eat at the MB M'ville (volcano nachos, yum!) on occasion. Plan on visiting both the LV restaurant and casino when I'm out there next month, just to say I did. Don't mind a cold Landshark once in a while, but have never tried the food or the booze. I'm kind of in the "hmmm, look what Jimmy has out now. Am I interested?" camp. If I like it, I'll give it a shot. If not, I laugh at how crafty the man is and move on. I don't really care if the next guy (or gal) owns every M'ville creation on the market, it's not my money they're spending. Jimmy still gives me what I'm looking for in a tailgating/concert experience, and Radio Margaritaville is still entrenched at the top of my Sirius. As far as what I'd like to see him come out with? Even though I have yet to try my hand surfing, I could see a line of boards, and really would not mind that as a product line, since I think that is a natural progression and consistant with where Jimmy is now.

With the fanbase aging out the obvious next thing is Margaritaville Adult Diapers.

I'm like everyone else...I pick and choose what I buy. I love my flipflops...about the only brand I wear. We own a FCM, would eat the chips if they were available in our area. Enjoy the dip. And love my Ts. Yup, pick and choose.

Pottery Barn sells nice ones. I have a really nice Tommy Bahama beach chair - it reclines, has a headrest and a pocket on the back for cold stuff as well as a pocket for your sunglasses, lotion and stuff. It carries like a backpack - he should copy that, the one available isn't as comfy as the TB one.

Anonymouse agrees with you ..... from May 2008
MEGLARITAMART .... Rhyming TROPICAL with PROFITABLE since 1973

An extensive reissue campaign from Mailboat Records of Buffett's entire back catalog along with the release of Live By the Bay and Tales from Margaritavision on DVD. Some vintage live recordings from the vault (ala the Grateful Dead's Dick's Picks series) would also be nice. Which makes me wonder if we'll ever see the release of Buried Treasure. I'm much more interested in the music than I am in the rest of the Margaritaville, Inc. enterprise. Unfortunately, it appears to be the exact opposite for Buffett himself.

Just for kicks how bout Landshark adult waterwings?
