$22 Vintage Pyrex 471, 472, 473 Horizon Blue!!

Yee-haw!!  Last night I went to bed salivating over pictures of Pyrex collections (try googling "Pyrex Collective", the blog posts will keep you up for hours!!).

I woke up this morning with a huge yearning to hit the thrift stores.  Guess what I found at the FIRST thrift store!!!


Yippee!!!
I snapped up these three casseroles for a grand total of $22 for all of them.  While I was waiting in line to pay for these beauties, I realized I didn't have my wallet in my purse!!  Argh!!  Luckily, between the $20 I had in my pocket, and all the spare change I had in my car, I was able to come up with the money.

 I carefully hand washed these casseroles and now I need to figure out where I can store these - as my Pyrex collection now exceeds the 2 shelves I had allotted in my kitchen.

 ...I need to caffeine up, and hit a few more thrift stores...wish me luck!!!

 happy thrifting ;)

    Thank you Katherine. Well, I spent all my thrifting money on that trip (I also spent $50 at Value Village on 'necessities'). So it's going to be a while until I thrift again. Good news is that I'm making headway on the quilt tops! Hope to post pics soon.

    happy thrifting ;)

    I have the large oval pyrex casserole and we've nicknamed it, "Big Blue" as in, "Go get Big Blue so I can make salmon pie". It was my mum's, and the only piece of Pyrex I remember her owning (she didn't cook much).

    So now we have matching Pyrex which makes us soulmates or something;)

      Aw, Pyrex soulmates, I like that. Well your blog has inspired me to cook more. Alas, I have an empty nest these days - and my darling bf lives 4 minutes away, and he does the cooking. Yum, I like the sound of salmon pie, I'll have to google that!
