Pink Pyrex!

Another set completed!


Yes, it's true- I've been on a Pyrex spree lately. Not only did I just complete my Butterpripnt fridgie set after at least 2 years of looking, I finally completed my pink fridgie set.

I've only been working on this one since last fall though. I found the first one, the 502, in an auction box lot for $1 or 2. Then I found the 503 on eBay for a good price- think it was 9.99 plus shipping. Last week I got the 2 501s on eBay to finish the set. They were a bit more ($28 BIN with free shipping) but still a fair price and included the lids. They are absolutely mint, and I'm glad I scooped them up. I know it's almost like cheating to buy them online, but I don't think I'll ever find the whole set in the wild!

Completing the set for less than $50 is a good deal, I think. Now I need to focus on completing my turquoise set. I thrifted the 503 last fall for $5, and I am going to really try to find the rest in the wild or at least through trades.

  1. Congrats! I just need the 502 and I will have a complete set too. Seems to be one of the harder ones to find :-(

  5. The pink set is just the prettiest - I found the whole set at Value Village - it was probably the best thing I ever found there!!
