Thrifting in Saskatchewan

I've been doing quite a bit of thrifting in April!  I've blogged about it here and here!
Pyrex isn't super hard to find out here in Saskatchewan, there almost always is at least one piece in Value Village.  In the Mennonite Clothes Closets it's rarer, and same with the Salvation Army's.  I've seen a few abused pieces that made me very very sad.  There are usually lots of Termo-Rey and the other glass companies as well.  






Some eye candy for you!

Also does anyone know of an online English Pyrex reference site?  The one I have linked to on my blog doesn't work anymore. :(

Canada & Clowns

Wow, it's been a whole week since anyone posted! Are you all in a drought, too? {Although usually someone posts right after I do :-P it happens every time.} Yeah, not much Pyrex finding going on around these parts, but I do have a couple goodies to show you today.

I was lucky enough to score this gorgeous Canadian delphite fridgie on Etsy last week! I was so excited to find it, I snatched it right up. And could you blame me? It was only $8 and a handful of change.

It didn't come with the lid, but I had an extra lying around. Well shoot, don't they make the perfect match?

This is my very first Canadian Pyrex find! I hope to score more. Any Canadians out there want to trade some Pyrex with me? Because I'd love to finish this set. I just LOVE the color of the delphite Pyrex.

Then, today I happened upon this charming children's set by Pyrex at a local street fair/flea market, featuring clowns and a circus pattern.

$8 for both! Again, I couldn't help myself. It had to come home with me.

Though I don't think I'm brave enough to ever let my kids eat off of it, it is still a really fun addition to my collection!

Everyone have a safe Labor Day weekend!
