Well, I was brave and went back to Goodwill to contest my paying $14.99 for a cast-iron cornbread skillet that was supposedly worth $85 (really, it can be purchased for $21 to $31).
I didn’t even finish my sentence of explanation before I received a big apology from the manager who was present. The other manager (the one who told me the skillet was worth $85) had checked on its value after I departed the store, only to find he was mistaken. He left instructions that if I was to come back in, to pass on his apology and give me half my money back.
I am so thankful for honest people. That meant more to me than receiving the refund.
That’s awesome Wardeh! That is an excellent deal.
I need to get more cast iron cookware. I love my stainless steel, but only have ONE cast iron skillet and it’s too small for cooking for the whole family.
Traci, I promise that once you start looking, you’ll be seeing them all over! (But maybe not for the right price.)
You are so brave. Good for you. You won’t believe this: I got a Lodge cast iron corn bread skillet today at Goodwill for 4.99. I was surprised because lesser (not good brand name) cast iron is normally at least $8 at my Goodwill. My original two skillets I use all the time were 50 cents each at a garage sale.
We are still enjoying our kombucha every day! Love, Mary
Mary! $4.99! That is awesome. My goodness, I’m so happy for you! And 50 cents for the other skillets. You get the BEST deals! (I’m sorry I’ve taken so long to respond to this!)
