I met my best friend Heather today in a town that is half way for both of us (we live an hour a part). We always thrift and then go to lunch and today was no exception. We hit one of our favorite smaller thrifts and I almost passed out. There was the Ivy chip and dip promo. Only I am perimentapausally challenged and didn't REALIZE that it was a chip and dip. I remembered it was a promo and special, but I was thinking cinderella set with two missing. I really am trying to scrape together money for my kids to go to summer camp and I'm trying to only thrift major bargains. Each bowl was individually marked. One was $12.99 and one was $7.99. Not a great price. I resisted, though it was hard, but around the corner I gasped. There sat a lidless Cosmopolitan!!!! It was $8.99. That one did come home with me. The cool thing is, we got to lunch and I had a free lunch (Points for a frequented place). That made me feel better about the Pyrex! I guess the other good thing is, some other Pyrex crazy person can enjoy the set I left. I am very happy with what I took home!

Love the cosmo! I found it at a thrift with my dad, who almost died when I started squealing and diving for it on the bottom shelf. It's gorgeous! I just passed up an extra lid a couple of weeks ago - you'll have to keep an eye out for one! Love it!
ReplyDeleteAnother question - is yours marked Pyrex or Salton on the bottom? Apparently they're basically the same thing? http://www.pyrexlove.com/cosmopolitan-promotional-casserole-mystery/glassware/
ReplyDeleteMadee, I heard that too. Mine says Pyrex..does yours? I can't believe you saw a lid! I am on the look out!
ReplyDeleteI have the cosmopolitan with lid. My lid says Pyrex and the dish says Salton.
