Years ago (many, many...) I worked for Pier 1 and we sold Le Crueset. Well, at that time they were discontinuing the color brown so I was able to buy a set of 2 saucepans w/lids, 2 dutch ovens w/lids and 2 fry pans for $25.00! And they are still going strong!

The best deal I got recently was Martha Stewarts Hors d'Oeuvres Handbook for only $8 with some Flooz offers that I took advantage of. I have a Calphalon outlet store near me, so I'm always on the lookout there. Recently they had some cookie sheets on sale for only $7, but alas, I had already bought a couple! Now if only they will put some muffin tins on sale....

Lindrusso, where is the calphalon outlet?? I've never seen one before and I think I can do some serious damage http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/biggrin.gif

I live in Indiana and a nearby town called Fremont has an outlet called "Chef's Outlet". I guess it's not technically a Calphalon outlet, but that's primarily what they carry - along with utensils, gadgets and many yummy gourmet sauces, mustards, etc. It's one of my favorite stores! I have no idea if they have other stores or not...

They carry Calphalon at discount - usually due to slight imperfections - and they also run sales on top of that occasionally. I've been pretty good so far in my purchases as my mom has been helping me build my collection through birthday gifts and Christmas.

Thanks, I'm going to look for that in my area.

A couple weeks ago, I got a rotisserie cooker at a yard sale (brand new) for 5 bucks. The lady had never used it, got it from a neighbor who had never used it. I love it. Chicken is now one of our favorite meals.
