I love the solid colors and would like to have a mismatched set for the fall. (Yes, I change my plates for the season.)
Anyone else but them yet? Is the quality any good?
I'm currently using a Corelle pattern- I've had them for 20 years, they've gone through 6 moves, at least one frisbee game, and I've only had one plate break. I need something that good!

I want ALL of her dishes! The patterns suit my style and they are fun. I know they won't be as durable as your Corelle, but they sure are pretty!

Because of these threads, I looked for them at my local Wal Mart. They are either a well-hidden secret or not being carried. I at least wanted to see them!

I looked at them yesterday at Walmart. They have them mixed in with all the other stuff, so you have to look for her logo. I'm iffie on them. They don't look real sturdy, and I do NOT like a cup with that platform, or I don't know what to call it. I did like her cast iron pan though, and dutch oven. Those looked really heavy and nice.

I bought the red and white polkadot mixing bowl. It is super cute! I don't need it, and won't actually use it to mix things in – but it is super cute!

I went to 3 WMs yesterday looking for the pieces I want and they were all sold out.
They all had a PW display at the front near the seasonal stuff, but each store only had bits and pieces of the collection left.

I have a few of the pieces, and I so far, I really like them. I have the polka dot batter bowl, little scalloped edge measuring cups, pie plate, rolling pin, butter dish and 4-cup measuring cup. I haven't seen it at my local Walmart, but I have ordered things and picked them up in the store. I have no idea why my WM doesn't have them. I've looked several times this week. One day, I asked someone who told me that she worked in the housewares dept., and she didn't even know what I was talking about. Weird. I really want to buy the turquoise vintage looking glassware next. A lot of what I want is out of stock.
The pieces I have bought are nice and heavy. I was kind of surprised by the quality, but I am a bit nervous to see how they will hold up, if they will chip easily, etc. I think I will hand wash them just in case, at least until I use them for a while. I really love the pieces I have. They are so fun and colorful.

Definitely NO displays at our Walmart. I really had to look for them. For some reason I do NOT like the scalloped edges on her bowls. IDK. maybe thinking they will chip/break more? or harder to clean. Not sure.

I bought the turquoise Dutch oven and love it! I really like the details of the butterfly knob and her name embossed into the lid. I used it and it worked great and cleaned up like a breeze.
Our Walmart had very limited amount of stuff. Most everything was limited to two end caps and just a small amount of her line.

I bought the salt and pepper shaker and the ceramic, floral pitcher. I would like the utensil holder but they didn't have it.

I wonder if they are putting it more front and center in the south? seems like us northern Ps aren't seeing it as prominently?

I'm in the Chicago suburbs. Our nearest store had a full aisle size display of it at the front of the housewares department.

I saw them at a Walmart in Southwest Florida on 8/31 - fully stocked in the dish ware department. I loved it, ordered it online the next day to pick up at home. Love it.
I wanted some of the glassware and bakeware. I called the store closest to me. No one knew what I was talking about so I asked for the GM. he didn't know either and blew me off saying his store wouldn't carry it. I called a Super Walmart that I could stop by on the way home from work. Again, customer service knew nothing. Asked for the housewares manager. Was magically disconnected, called back same thing, again same thing. Called a third store in the southern part of my county as I headed down mid week to have dinner with friends. Same thing, no one knew anything, asked for housewares manager. This time I lucked out. She was so nice. She said they were resetting the seasonal aisle Wednesday morning and to come that night or Thursday morning it would all be out. She said they would only have it for two months and were not carrying it after that.
She did say she heard other stores in different parts of the U.S. are stocking it in housewares and they were having sales contests.

They have it at one of my Walmart's but not the other. I really wanted it, but then when I saw it and thought about it, I didn't get any of it. The batter bowl is adorable, but I wouldn't really use it. I did not like the actual color of the turquoise tumblers, the ruffled edges and footed cups seemed like more of a hassle than anything. I also was worrying about it chipping and holding up in the dishwasher. I do really like the cute butter dish and the dutch oven seemed really sturdy.

They all had a PW display at the front near the seasonal stuff, but each store only had bits and pieces of the collection left. What pieces are you looking for? From posts you have made, I don't think you live too far from me. I could check the stores near me if you would like.

I am looking for pretty much any of the Aqua glassware looking pieces. However, they are out of stock online and according to the website out of stock at WMs within a 59 mile radius of me. Thanks for offering though!

You really have to wonder who thinks two months is an appropriate window of opportunity. Now I wish some other store had the deal rather than wal-mart. I would not be surprised if that's the initial agreement, subject to extension if sales support it.

I found the turquoise glassware, I really like the vintage, depression glass look. I posted a picture on Facebook and my niece posted a picture of a set she registered for at Macy's and it looked identical.
PW posted a cute floral canister set and a napkin holder and I didn't see it in the stores but last night I checked on-line and it saw sold in stores only bit it isn't in stock yet. You can sign up for email notification.
I think Walmart did a poor job with this new product rollout. Just reinforces the negative opinion I already had about them. Would have preferred Target, oh well.

My WM had it blended in with all other housewares and even still they were sold out of almost everything. I want a few of the plates for my plate racks, but after inspecting it closely I don't think I'd want them for my everyday dishes. I might grab the cast iron pan, as I've been wanting one of those for quite some time.

My central MN store has a whole display right on the first houseware aisle as you walk into the store. The display faces the clothing and leads to the other houseware stuff.

The WM I went to this weekend had one side of one aisle dedicated right at the front of housewares. It was VERY picked over - lots of empty sections - but clearly did not carry the whole line anyway. I will go check out one of the other stores to see if I can find more. I got the salt and pepper shakers, the little scalloped measuring bowls, a larger measuring cup that's like a pitcher and the pots and pan set. I've been wanting/needing some new pots and pans - was planning on buying something nicer and longer lasting soon, but I swear i just fell in love with them. Oh and 2 coffee mugs . I love everything so far. I cooked with the pots this weekend and I really like them - everything seems pretty sturdy and well made. It is all beautiful though! I will get more as the budget allows and I find the things I want!
