Well, I saw a yellow 4 Qt in a thrift shop a few weeks ago and it was $12! I bought the other one I have for $1.95. So I thought it was a bit pricey so I passed, and then when I went back last week it was gone! I was going to ask the manager if she could reduce the price but now I couldn't. Maybe someone else did. I went to a near by Goodwill and found the exact mixing bowl for $3.00!!! In pretty good shape too.
Also, wanted to show you my Blue Heaven dinnerware set and some of my favorite vintage restaurant ware I bought a few weeks ago at Savers, and my eBay purchase..Anchor Hocking Fire King "Peach Lustre" 2 Qt Casserole and with 4 large custard berry? cups and 4 small custard cups! Really Pretty.
You can see many of my other finds on my blogs Pyrexjunkie.blogspot.com and Unique2antique.blogspot.com
Pyrex 4 Qt bowl- $3.00
My awesome "Blue heaven" dinner set. Setting for 6.
6 Dinner plates, 6 Berry bowls, 6 Snack plates, 6 cups and saucers,
a platter and sugar bowl. Bought at one of my favorite antique centers
and bought the whole set for $60. I thought that was a really good price
for this pattern, usually they are priced much higher!
Love these Homer Laughlin restaurant ware soup bowls & dinner plates. Bought these at Savers I bought 5 of both, The girl gave 4 plates and 4 soup bowls for $2.99 for all 4 and the other two were 0.99 cents each! What a great buy!
Has anyone seen these before? because I haven't!
Bought these on eBay. Have not been buying a whole lot on eBay like I used to. Now since I go to thrift shops, eBay is even pricey! But I have not seen a lot of these Anchor Hocking "Peach Lustre" at all in the thrift shops I go too. So I bought this 2 Qt casserole with 4 large custard cups and 4 small custard cups for $22 with shipping! I thought that was pretty good for all of this!
What do you think?
AND, I bought this about 2 months ago in an antique store in CT. I saw it and was so overjoyed with exciement! First, I saw this same exact cooler on Mad Men (which is my fav show of all time)
and I have been looking for a cooler for awhile and stumbled upon this one. I grabbed it for $65 bucks.
Isn't that awesome?!
This is the mother-load of awesomeness! I am so envious of your Blue Heaven dinner set! I have seen it a few times of my local antique stores but NEVER at a reasonable price! Price gougers!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd your Homer Laughlin plates are FAB-U-LOUS! :)

Denise thanks for the comment! I LOVE the blue heaven set, it is so MAG! =) I love antiques, there so fun to use and look at!
DeleteLOVE the cooler. It looks like it is in super great condition. I love Mad Men too. Sometimes I spend so much time watching the backgrounds and props that I miss the actual dialogue and drama!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I do too. Mad men is an AWESOME show! I can't wait for season 6 to come out!
DeleteMe too, I see so much Pyrex/antique items it amazes me!
The cooler rocks! I have a green one from the 40's (I believe) and it such an eye catcher! You are going to enjoy that cooler for a long time to come:)
ReplyDeleteA green one? That must be awesome! I have never seen a green one before..I haven't used it yet but I will when the spring time comes!
