I know this is an old thread, but to answer your question, it was on the outlet about a year ago. You can find the same exact thermometer that we used to carry on the King Arthur Flour website http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/detail.jsp?select=C81&byCategory=C155&id=4323. I don't know if you ever noticed, but in some of the Pampered Chef catalog pictures in the baking category, I have seen a bag of King Arthur flour in the background. Coincidence??? Hmmmm....

Wow, that thermometer does look just like our old one! Also on this link the mat for rolling out dough looks alot like ours. King Arthur flour is superb!! Their bread flour is awesome. They also picture Saf instant yeast which is great too! I used it for my rolls this past Thanksgiving and they rose higher than ever! The price is right too.
