"The Walgreen's near me had these but they were Toothpick holders instead of the S&P ones." -caffeinated-

I've checked a couple Walgreens and they all had several trays of toothpick holders, one tray of S&Ps. The trays were stacked on each other on the shelf. Moving trays may reveal S&Ps.

But you're probably going to have to move trays anyway. Thre's a mix of tiki, pineapple, and hamburger designs. As there are few tikis and the glaze chips easily finding good specimens is difficult. If you're short one the pineapple and tiki make a good looking set together. (As you can see in Wesley's pic above.)

The toothpick holders remind me of very small Benihana style mugs where the front and back are solid, hole is in back. Assuming they're safe for food (they were intended fr dry goods) they'd make amusing servers for strongly flavored, high octane shot type drinks.
