People are ‘so jealous’ of my thrift store kitchen score – the huge lot is worth hundreds and in amazing condition
A SAVVY secondhand shopper put her skills to the test – and she’s seen it pay off in huge savings.
She wound up snagging a selection of highly-coveted kitchen items for a fraction of the full-price cost.
Many people were floored – and envious – of the money-saving finds.
“Found a huge lot of Le Creuset at the thrift store the other day,” said Redditor bettyspaghetti3.
Her only issue was that she needed to find a way to lug everything to the cashier.
But that was no problem for this fast-thinking thrifter.
“Just passed through the pots and pans and called my husband who was on the other side of the store to get a cart!” she said.
That cart came in handy for transporting her Le Creuset loot, which included six pieces from the high-end kitchenware brand.
The best part was that everything seemed to be in pristine condition.
Still, the biggest question on everyone’s mind was the price.
And these readers didn’t waste time finding out just what she had paid for the kitchen scores.
“Looks like a $24.99 sticker and a possible $15.99. Which are both good deals as long as there’s no damage inside!” said one user.
“Yes, all between $25 and $9 depending on size, which is a bit steep for thrift prices, but they were in amazing condition!” she confirmed.
Others couldn’t get over the lucky steal.
“Oh my! I’m so jealous!” said one reader.
“Wow, snap them all up,” another agreed.
Their shock came as no surprise as the items are easily worth hundreds of dollars.
A Le Creuset enameled cast iron signature saucepan sells for $225 to $268 and is described as being ideal for making sauces, as well as simmering, poaching, and reheating.
Aside from a smoothly curved interior and rounded base, the pan features an extended helper handle as well as a contoured main handle for “added control for manuring from the kitchen to the table.”
The cooking buy, which “delivers superior heat distribution,” is also chip and crack-resistant.
