Not that I have seen or heard.
Those are the only two I know of.

Binnys had a pile of the OF at $15 when I stopped by just before Christmas.

I do like the glass that comes with the OF set, but I'm not in a hurry to get one for our local price of $22.
It's a nice package with the fancy bottle and glass, and the juice is quite good as well. Too bad I paid $25 for it last year. But for $15, I'd jump on it. The Glencairn glass alone is worth $10!Quote:

Either way, I thought it was odd. Joe
I bought one of the OF sets at Binny's last month for $15, but just last Friday I found a store that had 5 sets on sale for $10.98! And yes, they were complete sets with the glass. I had already brought to the counter $250 worth of other goodies, so I only picked up 2 of them. My gut said to get all five, but I couldn't get myself to spend anymore than I already had. Mistake? Probably.
2 OF Repeal Sets opened, 2 OF Repeal glasses broken. I love Glencairns, but I can't keep from knocking them over. The base is just too small. I'll take a rocks glass please.
Shortly after the OF set came out an on-line sellerQuote:
