Gasp! Oh the horror!!!

Last week I went up to Olympia area to pick up my daughter from a week with friends.  I thought... great!  I'll go early and hit up Value Village and the Goodwill.  VV ended up not having a stitch of anything worth anything. 

Goodwill... this is where the horror begins!  Oh... the humanity of it... so so sad.  I couldn't believe that this one store didn't have any pyrex that wasn't on it's last leg.  It ALL was so badly damaged.  Total shock.






I was so depressed.  :(

    It is so sad to see such abused Pyrex! I have found the thrifts so empty of anything worth buying lately....ugh! Oh well it's not like I don't have plenty of stuff!

    These break my heart. Is there a way to remove the paint to just make it a white dish?

    I found myself thinking... well, maybe I could fix it! Ha! And what else was sad... they were priced the same as GOOD or MINT Pyrex found at thrift stores.

    They were priced the same as good Pyrex? Really? They have a fat nerve! These should really just be put in the garbage, nobody in their right mind would buy them! VV is on to us and they have been putting their prices up, very close to what an antique vendor would ask. They seem to forget that they are a thrift shop...
