I don't understand why they couldn't have made the new tea service be Elizabeth's (whose family certainly would have been drinking tea) and left the chocolate set for Felicity.

The ladies at the outlet said they were told by corporate that the chocolate set was being discontinued. Apparently, that means gone for good. Retired is gone, but could come back-I would have thought the terms had just the opposite meaning. Maybe they will repackage them, like they did Samantha's traveling coat and accessories, but I can't see how in a way that would be more practical than what they already had. Also, if they were repackaging them, you would think that they would have had them come out in their new form with all of the other new stuff. They would have already had all the pieces available and how hard could it be to put them in different boxes? Even the items that aren't available yet can still be seen on the web page. I just don't understand AG's thinking sometimes. [img]graemlins/thinking.gif[/img]
