I am a Goodwill junkie. Ask anyone. Today I scored. Big time.
I saw this set of vintage turquoise Pyrex mixing bowls inside the glass case as I was walking out the door. I am the queen of passing things up. Usually when I see something and not buy it, I get home and stew about it. The same thing happened today.
As soon as I drove out of the parking lot, regret immediately followed. I had a few stops to make but I told myself that I would be back. And I hoped prayed that they would still be there by the time I got back.
Luck was definitely on my side today!
I went directly to the first cashier I saw and told her I needed something out of the case. I was NOT gonna let anyone get these before I did! All 3 bowls were taped together with clear packing tape so I couldn't even see what kind of shape they were in. Luckily the rims weren't cracked, so I made the decision to just go with it.
I was barely inside the front door when I ripped into the tape and laid them out before me. With the exception of serious stains and a layer of dust, they were in extremely nice condition. All it took was some nice, hot soapy water and a sponge and these babies were sparkling new again!
I love it when I have good days!
