coconut post cards

[LizLovesDiz]

A few years back we sent one to our friend back home.We were wondering if they still have them? :mickey:

[mouseketeer mom]

Yes. The Polynesian's Boutiki gift shop carries them.

Thank you for the info! :mickey: it was a big hit with everyone.

Bummer. We just returned from 8 nights at the Polynesian and somehow I missed these. I know some people who would have loved to receive them. Oh well, there's always next year

We've also seen them at the Caribbean Beach.

They are also sold in the gift shop at POTC in MK. They were in a basket near the check out stand:pirate:

What is the postage required for sending them? My parents would get a kick out of it!

[SurferStitch]

They are so cool! We sent one to my parents when we stayed at the Poly last December.

Postage was actually pretty cheap. They charged us something like $3-$5 (can't remember exactly - please don't quote me), and when I saw the postage stamp at home it actually cost a couple dollars more to mail, so we made out a little on that deal.

My parents still have it, too!

not to sound ignorant, but what are these?

[SurferStitch]

I checked the coconut at my parents house today, and the postage was $6.20. So, we paid less for postage than it actually cost to mail it. I'm pretty sure we only paid $3.50.

They are actual coconuts with a Florida scene on them. The back of the coconut has a space to write a short note and the address on it (have to use a Sharpie - it's a white space that looks like the back of a postcard). They slap a postage sticker on it, and it ships to the recipient in the mail as is. Mine survived the adventure in great shape.

I'm sure it's quite a conversation piece in the post office!
