They were a special Target Dollar Spot item, limited to Valentine's Day -- customer service at my local Target said that once they were sold out, no more would be available till next year. I've seen similar items at Michael's, made out of Fun Foam, but nothing just like the Target mailboxes. Sorry! :(

Occasionally you'll see threads in the Buy/Sell/Trade forum where people are offering their extras for sale, so keep an eye out!

Yeah, they're probably not at Target anymore since V-day is over. Check the buy & sell forum like the pp mentioned- I saw some up for sale on there not too long ago.

Call all the Targets within driving distance. I was there yesterday and bought 8 of them! They were on sale for 30% off, so they were only 70 cents each. And there were about 30 of them left. I bought only the white ones, but there were the unpainted silver ones and pink ones left. I live in Illinois. I made three of them this year (my first time) and they were so well received, I bought a bunch more for next year.

There was one very similar to Targets at Michaels for 1.99. They were in with the valentine stuff so they are probably being clearanced off. It was the same size as Targets, and it was red.

My Archiver's had paper mache mailboxes just recently. I can't tell you how much they were though, I'm sorry. They were also a little larger than the Target ones. Good luck in your search!

They are a limited time thing at Target for Valentine's Day. you can find some in white from Provo Craft here:

Amazon has some for $3.99

http://www.scrapbookexpress.com/tinmaboxsm.html for $3.39

You can get some cardboard ones at Oriental Trading Company.

They may have some other ones at Oriental Trading--there search button is not very good--you have to actually search. They may be there. okay, it took a bit of searching but I found them in Red and White at Oriental Trading. Target gets a VERY good deal---buy them when you see 'em.
