My wife and I both love going to thrift stores. We both peruse the used books, then she makes a beeline for the crystal pieces, and I look for cast iron. I found another piece tonight, here are a few of the ones I've picked up in the last year or two. The orange one was around $18, but the others were both less than $10. Each one, although used and definitely older than I am, is wonderful in it's own right.
I stole these pictures from the internet because I don't want to dig them all up, but these are very similar and should give you the idea.
Cousances saucepan - mine has a crack in the wooden part of the handle
Descoware flame oval Dutch oven
Tonight's find - Descoware SK-24 9 1/2" enameled skillet with a beautiful wood handle. I figured out that the handle unscrews so that you don't need to get it wet to wash the pan, makes sense now that it still has such a nice finish.
