Aren't we super cute?! :-)

Walmart Skillet find + Coupon Deals 06/01/09


Stopped into Walmart to use up some coupons and get some things for FREE, and found this kick butt WearEver skillet, I have been looking for a smaller nonstick skillet for months now and didn't want to pay full price for it of course. Well, we walk into Walmart and low a behold - the exact skillet I have been looking for on clearance. Originally $19.99, and I picked it up for $10.00. YAY! I have yet to pay full price for any of my skillets/pots and they are all WearEver brand (now one is green, one blue, and now one black, but hey, they are GREAT skillets and really nonstick, so who cares if my collection is a little multi-colored :-)
