I caved but I like it

Confession: I caved to Ebay! I bought some pyrex from the website about a week ago and just received the last piece today. At first I felt guilty but now I feel it was totally worth it! (But I don't plan on doing it again...unless I get a really good deal!)

First, I bought two butterprint fridgies. I won the auction for only $2.50 but with shipping it ended up being around $12. Not tooooooo bad, right? These are my first fridgies ever and I didn't realize how small and cute they were! (Also, my first butterprint!)

Then, I bought this 1.25 qt snowflake rectangular dish that I've been hollering about for a while for my dad. His mother owned it back in the 60s and when I started collecting pyrex he told me I had to find it for him. So, I did! He'll be thrilled! Hopefully it's the right one...


This one was a bit more expensive at $9.99 but, $18 total with shipping. The shipping really kills you. But, I think it was all totally worth it! Especially because I don't think I'd be able to find these particular prints in my area very easily.

Tomorrow's Friday!!! Yay!

  3. Oh I hope you received the lid with that blue snowflake dish because if you didn't you got hoodwinked! $18 with no lid... boo!

  4. No, It came without the lid. But, I knew what I was doing. It's a gift for my father so it didn't really matter how much it cost.

  5. Lovely finds. And I agree with you; if it makes your Dad happy the snowflake dish is worth every penny, priceless!
