I spotted this cute mug at Savers yesterday. I don't really understand my obsession with vintage Corelle/Pyrex/Fire King, but whatever. It's not like I'm compulsively buying fine china or shit that doesn't get used.
So, I thought this was cute, and it reminded me of one I had when I was little. But I have this habit of looking up thrift store scores online, just to see how much they're worth...
And now I can't drink out of it, because that design is apparently very rare and people are willing to pay $200 for it. And the one I have is in brand-new condition.

I love Strawberry Shortcake, but I would sell it in a heartbeat. Great Find!
That's AWESOME. I have a Calder candy dish that's apparently worth $125. I bought it for $3 at Salvation Army because it was pretty.
PS I have the same obsession with fire king. Love it love it.
Hubby and I collected for over 30 years...just asked as neither can no remember if we packed them or if we sold them...six Strawberry Shortcake mugs and a cereal bowl...
