The Crazy Pyrex Lady

 A new thrift store opened up near me and boy did I hit it at the right time.  I found a cute little yellow Pyrex dish and when I went to check out I spotted A HUGE stack of Pyrex behind the counter.  The lady nicely let me "ooh" and "aah" before I carefully picked out the dishes below.


I brought them home, washed them, took pictures of them then called my mom.  I was so excited.  Yet I could not get the rest of dishes out of my mind.  There was still so much just sitting there.  How much Pyrex do I really need?  But still I could not get the thought of all that pretty red and yellow glassware out of my mind.  What time did they open?


I was tempted to go in to work late but ultimately I risked it and stopped in after school was out.  The Pyrex was there just waiting for me to take it home.  So for a second day in a row I left with three bags of dishes.  One of the volunteers jokingly called me "the crazy Pyrex lady".

The best part of all this is ALL of was 50% and cost next to nothing.

You were very lucky to get such quantity. I like glass dishes also, but my local thrift store seems to have tons of glassware and very few serving pieces.
