Sorry I can’t help ya out with any retro Pez links. Is this your Pez collection? It’s awesome !
THERE IS A PEZ CONVENTION EVERY JUNE IN ST LOUIS. YOU CAN ALSO CHECK ANTIQUE STORES AND VINTAGE COLLECTIBLE SHOPS. I COLLECTED PEZ FOR A LONG TIME AND KNOW HOW ADDICTIVE IT IS. ALSO, TRY PEZ.COM FOR COOL EUROPEAN ISSSUES LIKE MR BEAN.
Hi! I collected Pez once! I think I still have them somewhere in a shoebox 🙂
Very original a Pez Christmass tree hihi! I love the idea!
I got them mostly from fleemarkets! It’s a lot cheaper then antique stores, ’cause most of the time people think they’re just selling ‘old toys’ and they don’t know the value of the items.
LOVE the new pic…FAB! If Ebay washes out for you, I believe you can purchase NEW Pez (in retro styles) at Cracker Barrel restaurants. They have kind of a “retro candy” section…I got a Lucy Van Pelt (my hero) dispenser there!
Hi! I am actually considering seriously cutting down my Pez collection. There aren’t many truly vintage ones (no feet), but there are some really awesome ones in the collection. I would be happy to pass them on to you for your tree. Let me know. Niki colie563@yahoo.com
Hi Elsie!! My little daugher and me are Petz collectors too!! I see the collections are different from each country! We live in Italy and, for ex, now we have strange caracter never seen before. We have not Batman & co. My fav: Hello Kitty!! =D
a pez christmas tree?? oh so cute!! i can only imagine how cute you will make it.
i don’t have any real suggestions, but if you check out some of the local fleamarkets, like the STD fleamarkets (is it bad that i giggle like a little girl when i say that) it seems that people have a lot of them in their booths.
As a pezhead (pez collector) myself I do have quite the collection, so I was excited to see your post! There is a myspace for pezheads here: http://pezhead.ning.com/. I am almost positive if you post, you can get quite a few pez from all the great members 🙂 I also have a TON of duplicates if you are interested!
Elsie, That profile pic is so funny. It made me laugh out loud. You are so funny. Love reading your blog and seeing what you are up to. You are always doing something so fun. Love the idea of making monster cookies. Makes me want to make some. Yum.
Hey, girl EBAY is probably your best bet. My daughter has over 200 pez. Maybe you could get a hold of me and we could trade. Do you have the Pez bubbles? Very cool.Thinking your Pez tree would look amazing!!! Can’t wait to see the pics.

I typed in pez vintage on http://www.etsy.com and suprisingly there were four listed!! Totally not handmade, but I guess if you list vintage on there, they let you list it! What a totally cute and unique idea for your tree!!
If you ever come to Pennnsylvania, visit the Easton Museum of Pez. Two brothers put this museum together to showcase their eclectic collection of vintage Pez dispensers. They are displayed in creative and “natural” settings. Its about 1 1/2 hours north of Philadelphia in Easton.
My 4 year old is obsessed with PEZ! I totally get it – bright, cheerful, full of candy – what’s not to love. Looking forward to seeing the tree! I’ll be sure to share your pics with my lil guy.
can’t help with the retro pez but wanted to let you know there is a new Disney Princess PEZ gift set out, $14.99 (it’s at Kroger’s in Ohio), really cute.

no luck, but I have seen the “Pez Museum” It is in Northern CA (near San Francisco).
Not a vintage store, but if you check out Dollar Stores, you can usually find Pez and they always have random figures 🙂
omigosh…love pez!! Love that new pic of you with the glasses, too! =)
Hey… there is actually a PEZ museum in Burlingame, CA that is way cool. He has a ton of original pez, check it out:

I too have seen Pez at Dollar General, Dollar Tree, and Deals. Usually near the checkout counters. Happy Hunting!

Hi Elsie,
There is also a Pez Museum in PA where you can see some really cool old Pez dispensers displayed & also can buy some of the older ones.
The Pez Museum is in Easton, PA, just across the Delaware River from Phillipsburg, NJ.
oh my…love those pez dispensers!!

Hey Elsie,
Did you know that there is an ‘Elsie Flannigan is my Idol’ group on FaceBook? Wow.
If you ever come to Pennnsylvania, visit the Easton Museum of Pez. Two brothers put this museum together to showcase their eclectic collection of vintage Pez dispensers. They are displayed in creative and “natural” settings. Its about 1 1/2 hours north of Philadelphia in Easton.
i have what seems like a thousand pez. if there are any that you would like just hit me up and i’ll see what i have and you can have it.
analamay@hotmail.com
not sure if this is what you’re looking for, but this week in their sunday ad, target has glow-in-the-dark hallowwen pez for 99 cents.
My 4 year old is obsessed with PEZ! I totally get it – bright, cheerful, full of candy – what’s not to love. Looking forward to seeing the tree! I’ll be sure to share your pics with my lil guy.
I would definitely give ebay a try..
It is, after all, the reason ebay was created in the first place.

HI Elsie,

My hubby collesct pez….like other have said already…check out pez.com and ebay.
I don’t got your point. But thank you all the same.
Hello Elsie,
you will find my doubles to sell in Braques Verzamelshop/Shop de Collection on 2dehands.be
Have even some of the 1960’s (footless) in my collection, kept them since I was little.
This year our Christmass tree will have lots of Disney Characters in it and other small characters disguised in Santa Claus.
I hope to see pictures of your tree with Pez in it!
