Those are adorable.

at least Publix is still running a very beautiful holiday adv on TV. But...it's too bad that you can't find the little Pilgrim, Cin... I have a set from Hallmark..ohh...must go back at LEAST 25 years, or so... a neighbor gave them to me...such a sweet little gift..just a token, but you know...she's since gone to be with the Lord and I'm so thankful for having known her...especially every Thanksgiving when I bring out the little Pilgrims. We never know how much a small little gift can mean to someone. BTW...maybe we should write to Publix and ask that they bring back the Pilgrims!!! :)

I have the Pilgrims, the Santa set and the Snowmen. I heard last year that they were discontinuing but I don't think I believed it! I wonder if they'll come back next year with a different design?

Beth, I also have a Santa Salt & Pepper that were 1st anniv presents to my parents. They set on the table ONLY Christmas day. Rest of the time they are safe behind the glass in the china cabinet.

Kate, I am wondering the same thing. The Italian Chefs that we're part of their Italian summer campaign do not have dates. Still they are as cute as the Pilgrims and Santas and snow people.

Oh man, I missed the chefs! Dang!

Cindee no need to bet. There are lots of S&P's on ebay.

Hi Cindee,

I only have the Pilgrims and I was thinking on getting the other sets :-( I have them near my stove and they make me smile everytime I look at them.

Holey Sox, Marion!! They are all over the place on EBay! I sure wish I would have seen it coming, I would have bought up a bunch.

Kate, I do have an extra Chef set, but since we are broke for Christmas, I was planning to send to my good friend in StLou. I bought her the Pilgrims a few years ago and she has been so happy with them.
They may have them again since they aren't dated. I'll keep my eyes open for them. Here they are...along with the "Snow People" and "Mr and Mrs Santa". Sorry it's blurry. My camera does not take clear artificial light photos...but you get the idea.

Boy, this makes me love my salt n peppers even more. I think I have a collection, now! lol Dennis's daughter sent me trout shakers...1/2 the fish front diving in and the back 1/2 flipping out. I will have to be on the lookout for unique shakers in my travels from now on.

If you get to Orlando, there's a restaurant on Edgewater Ave called Shakers you would like. Guess what they have lining shelves on every wall? Yup, salt and pepper shakers. Hundreds of them! Some are ancient, some are funny, all of them make me feel like it's 1956. And the food is awesome - don't miss the meatloaf sandwich!

Be careful what you wish for! LOL

I bet they have some more cuties in production to take Y'alls hard earned money.

I saw a brand new in the box set of them at an estate sale. Would have bought them if I knew they were discontinued.

I've been very careful with items like that being made in China, because of all the complaints of lead in the paint and then you put food on/in them. Could that be the reason they stopped making them?

Check yard sales and thrift stores. You're bound to find some. Or maybe a group to trade with, like on Yahoo!. I was collecting the Wade Pet Shop figurines that you get in Red Rose Tea and only needed one more for a complete set and a lady in the Wade group on Yahoo traded me for one I had two of.

I bought mine and a set for each of my sons on sale year before last. Last year, all they had was leftovers on sale for half price, and they went quickly, along with the Christmas ones, which I believe are also out of production.

I have the shakers and napkin holder.
