Tiki mug producer and purveyor Tiki Farm is moving out of their San Clemente digs so this week they’re having a warehouse sale to help lighten the load. (This also happens to coincide with Tiki Oasis in nearby San Diego.)
They set up a few tables out front with all the mugs, scorpion bowls and shot glasses labeled with numbers, and handed out ordering forms for buyers to specify which ones they wanted and how many. This strategy kept things running in an orderly and polite fashion.
It was billed as the biggest sale ever in company history, so I’d honestly expected a bit more. There were definitely some good finds though. Many of their currently offered items were discounted, and I was excited to find some sold-out promotional mugs (like Fender’s Marcus Carcass, $15) and locale specific ones such as The Beachcomber Cafe‘s scorpion bowl ($20) and Big Kahuna mug ($10) which have been out of stock the last couple times I’ve visited the restaurant. Bigger spenders could nab the Vitua’s Vessel mug & Hot Wheels set by Shag for $150 or a United Airlines female menehune reproduction for $175.
A couple items were also making their debut for this event, including “The Happy Cannibals” mug and these cute little “Oi’ Pona” bottle toppers ($5) and salt and pepper shakers ($10). Mr. Baseball said the Marquesan tikis looked like Magneto… (He does have a point.)
Also available were SoCal Tiki dvds ($5), a few different styles of Tiki Farm t-shirts (above, $10), the new Tiki Farm quarterly magazine ($5), posters (see second photo) and a couple racks of sarongs and aloha shirts (below).
They’re also sweetening the deal with free Samoan War Club swizzle sticks with any purchase, plus a free Hot Lava Java volcano sugar and creamer set for folks spending more than $75. The sale continues today until 3 p.m., Sunday 11 a.m.-3 p.m. and Monday 9 a.m.-3 p.m.

Hey Tiki Chick,
Great post! I was hoping someone would report back from the Tiki Farm sale.
Do you have anymore pics of the goods available?
Best,
Darrin
Thanks, I’ll see what I can do!
I wish I could have made it there, but my week in Southern California went way to fast. Looks like there were some good finds there!
I’m sure you’ll find many reasons for a return visit. 🙂 Hope you enjoyed Oasis!
Whoops! I apparently missed the sign for the parking instructions…hopefully Holden didn’t retrieve it later with my tire marks across it! Did you happen to see the Army Jeep with tiki torches, skulls & bamboo nerf bars parked on the street? (I took a picture) Or maybe that is your ride?
Nice recap of the event. I too was expecting it to be a bit bigger, but they did have a lot of stuff packed into those 3 tables next to the warehouse. By the way, thanks for the tip on the sold out Beachcomber bowl…I’m glad I picked one up!
Once again, it was nice to meet you in person at the sale (psssst…Tiki Farm is located in San Clemente, at least for now 🙂
A hui hou kakou,
Trader Dan
Yes that is indeed a sweet ride. Can’t say it’s mine though.
I think El Segundo was wishful thinking on my part. That would have been way closer! lol
