Because of a recent thread discussing cookie tin buildings from Walmart, I’ve been searching in my local Walmart for them but can’t find them. Are they in a particular section I’ve over looked or only in some stores.
There are a couple more stores I’ll be searching in. Any ideas?
Thanx!
I looked here in NC…where I live around the Charlotte area in several stores and the answer is…zilch…nada…
Yea, me too, although yesterday I went to one of those super duper walmarts and found just one tin house, nothing spectacular. It was only $5.
Nothing at wallyworld-dot-com either.
Well, here’s a link to a site that has DIY paper versions of similar buildings:

There is a report at “the other forum” that Big Lots have some, but I have not seen them personally.
Here’s the ones I just bought from Big Lots (after hearing about them from that other place!):
Not bad for $5 each. I’ll be sending the cookies to school with our daughter to get rid of them though.

Looks like I’ll be heading to Big Lots tomorrow! [(-D]
I don’t think we have a big lots down here. I’ll have to check. Those buildings look great!
