Just going to brag about my awesome find at the Goodwill

[Horse with no Name]

I found a Fiesta large oval serving dish in my favorite color--yellow!
Oh--best part? I only paid .25.:)

Love it!

2. SCORE!!!

for a quarter even wow! most goodwills are getting more savvy about pricing, you lucked out!

5. We still have ONE

that hasn't given in to the higher prices.
I still get great deals--the others have all raised their prices on their "good" stuff to the point you might as well just buy it new with warranties and stuff.:(

I got FOUR "grab bags" of name brand clothes there last month for $2 a bag. Some of the clothes still had tags on them.
There were probably 10-15 pieces of clothing that we could use out of it--so I definitely got my money's worth. I then took the rest to a local resale shop and so far have made over $200.

I used to have a circuit of Goodwills. Now this is the only one. I will be sad when it goes by the way of the others.

I have been able to stock my kitchen with Revere Ware pots and pans, numerous small appliances including an infusion grill by George Foreman, NICE pottery and flatware for pennies on the dollar.

3. is it vintage, or newer Fiesta?

Either way, it's a deal.

4. Hmmm I don't know?

I think it is vintage.

On the bottom it say "fiesta" and with circles coming off of that says "HLC" and "USA"


It doesn't have anything else on it.

6. look for signs of use

Does the bottom have that look of being picked up and put down multiple times over the years? Any slight crackling anywhere?

7. No. It is literally like brand new

It does have a small chip on the bottom that isn't noticeable--but there aren't any other marks on it anywhere.

8. Then you got a deal, whether it's new Fiesta or collectable Fiesta

because Fiestaware is one of those things that just never goes out of style.

9. here is a really good article on dating your fiestaware

Enjoy! Hope you find some more pieces.

10. We have something called Savers

a super thrift store donating to the Epilepsy foundation

So far we found a replacement for our juicer body - the pitcher for our tea maker -
a cast iron pan - and lots of clothes that look or are brand new, books, movies...

and the prices are wonderful ...

but a perfect Fiesta Platter for twenty-fives cents??? - woo--hoo! good deal!!! :fistbump:
