Delighted bargain hunters share their kitchen steals from thrift stores.
Even though they only spent $4.21, they knew the true value of their latest money-saving gadget.
They shared their money-saving deals on a Reddit forum dedicated to all things money-saving.
Even after leaving the store with their hands full, they could hardly believe their discovery.
“The frugal score of the century,” they write.
To my surprise, they were picking up kitchen supplies at an even greater discount than expected.
“With 50% off, we spent a total of $4.21 on these babies! They were literally in near perfect condition,” they said.
They were excited to show off their like-new pots and pans and took photos of the two items sitting in the trunk of their car.
True to their word, they had a rarely used emerald green Le Creuset Dutch oven and a heart-shaped red cocotte.
They got the tableware for less than the price of a cup of coffee, but they clearly knew they had struck gold.
The green Round Dutch Oven retails for $390, and the red Traditional Heart Coset costs $220.
Commenters called their thrifty discovery sheer “madness.”
“We all know we're in high demand right now,” one person wrote.
The original poster couldn't help but agree that this was a once-in-a-lifetime deal.
They answered, “Yes! My mother has a collection. Ever since I left home, I've wanted one of my own.”
“I never imagined it would cost less than $200.”
Many couldn't help but express jealousy at their frugality scores.
“God, I see what you're doing here for other people,” one commenter joked.
“Please send me this type of package. Great win OP (I'm not vomiting or crying with jealousy at all!!!)”
“First of all, well, well,” said another.
“Yes, I have a lot of questions.The first is, do you understand?'' agreed with another.
One viewer felt the deal was so good it might amount to a crime.
“Reddit: Name something you think is illegal but isn't,” they said.
