(23,965 posts)I may have to go get a can. World Market also has the best price on Walkers shortbread cookies - a box of 20 of the little 2-to-a-pack shortbread fingers for $10.99. I first tasted Walkers shortbread in 1974, in Edinburgh, and, IMO, it is the best brand. Ive tried many others, and nothing compares.
The Vermont Country Store catalog is a hoot to look thru. Lots of familiar old products, and tons of stuff Ive never heard of.
I used to love Lanz of Austria flannel nightgowns, and wore out my last one years ago - washed so many times you could practically see thru it. I was very excited to find them in the VCS catalog, and ordered one right away. Sad to say, the quality was no longer the same - the flannel was stiff and harsh, and the neckline was badly asymmetrical. The label was still Lanz of Austria, but now made in China. Back it went.
