Mrs. B Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 (edited) This may more properly belong in the cast iron thread but I think there are more houseware/kitchen bargins out there that may deserve a place of their on so we call all benefit. Ad in today's Washington Post Food Section (prices good through 11/29/05) - Staub Cast Iron 5 Qt. Casserole available in red, blue, green or yellow reg. $103 now $39.Can you say holiday present? Anyone have a wedding shower in their future? Sounds like a bargain to me but I must confess to familiarity of the brand merely by word of mouth. eta:Sorry BLB I'm an idiot you are among the seeing - At Rodman's Edited November 16, 2005 by Mrs. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjsadler Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 What store?Or am I simply blind? Jennifer Rodman's. I think there was some discussion on EGullet about these cheap Staub pots and whether they were as good as the original. They were being offered a couple of other places (the Shopping Network or something, I think) for this $39 price, so it seems to be one of those things that's marked down from some imaginary original price (like a lot of cookware on Amazon). At this low a price, though, I'm going to have to go over and check these out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sthitch Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 The only reason I ever have to go to Leesburg is to visit the William Sonoma outlet. They generally have one type of All Clad at a discount. Recently, I found a 12 quart stockpot their at a sick discount, it normally goes for about $300, they had it for $110. It had a ding, but only on the handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sthitch Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Isn't there also a Le Creuset outlet there? I am not sure I would call it an outlet, I have never seen any real deals to be had.

Mrs. B Posted November 16, 2005 Author Share Posted November 16, 2005 This is enameled, I presume? Where is Rodmans? Yes I believe it is enameled and Rodman's is (well are since I didn't know about the two MD loactions - are) located at 5100 Wisconsin, White Flint Plaza and 4301 Randolph Rd. Wheaton.

ol_ironstomach Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Isn't there also a Le Creuset outlet there? Yes, and both have recent holiday coupons out, of the 20% off variety. Correction - the Le Creuset sale is 35%, but doesn't kick in until the 25th. I can't tell whether I need to drag in the mailer or not.

ol_ironstomach Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 If you're willing to buy a second (generally just a minor scratch) and use a coupon, fantastic deals can be had. Often not even seconds. I picked up a first-quality round doufeu there about two winters ago for something less than half of retail...it was already marked down a generous amount (discontinued color?) and the storewide sale knocked an additional 20% off. They also own Screwpull, so some deals on automatic corkscrews can be had. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPW Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 If you're willing to buy a second (generally just a minor scratch) and use a coupon, fantastic deals can be had. I stopped off at a LC outlet in Smithfield NC this summer and got a new 5.5 quart round oven that was a second (small paint drip on exterior of lid) with an in store coupon of 35% for just about $100. Sur La Table list is $190. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MicGSD Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 About a month ago I went to the LC outlet in Leesburg, and they had a risotto pan on sale for about $75. The only problem was that there were no more in stock, I would have to have it shipped and HOPE that, as a second, it wouldn't be too bad. Since even with shipping to my house it would be cheaper than a similarly-sized oven, I took a chance. It arrived 4 days with only a slight discoloration under the handle, and hasn't left the top of my stove yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shogun Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I've been seeing commercials the last few days for this 'Tuesday Morning' sale company advertising a 'Big Nov 7 sale on famous-name French cast iron cookware' with the only information given is their website at Tuesday Morning.com. I was about to say that their homepage is broken, but it turns out it's just not triggering my Flash plugin properly on this computer. Anyway, anybody have any experience with this store? Specifically, is the alleged Le Creuset stuff at big enough discount to justify driving 20 minutes to Fairfield (not that it would be a wasted trip...it's near Super Duper Weenie, which I always need an excuse to visit)?

Pat Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I don't know that store. I venture periodically to the Le Creuset factory outlet store at Leesburg Premium Outlets. They have a twice (?) annual big sale, but there are often other specials in the store, including an automatic discount if you buy more than X$ dollar amount of merchandise. I've made some good purchases there, maybe too many . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squidsdc Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Tuesday Morning is one of many discount chains in this area...you can find great deals, and not so great deals just like all the rest. I thought it worthy enough to note here yesterday, in case anyone was interested in checking it out. We didn't have enough time to stop in before work today, but may try to check it out later. I wonder if the selection will be that much different in CT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V.H. Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I've seen Le Creuset at Tuesday Morning in the past and the prices were good but not as good as the sales at the Le Creuset Outlet store. I think there should be one coming up for the holidays but I'm not sure. At the outlet during a sale, they'll offer something like 35% off everything, including the seconds that are already around 50% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ol_ironstomach Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Looks like this season's Le Creuset/Screwpull coupon is for 30% off any total over $75 at the factory outlet store in Leesburg, which is already usually marked down quite a bit. Valid 11/24 through 12/10. I have no plans to use it, so does anybody need mine? PM me.(taken) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilaine Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 The Le Creuset knockoff 5 quart French oven, at Target, rated a Best Buy in January/ February 2007 Cook's Illustrated, can still be found at various Targets around the area. Only $39.99. Only available in cherry red. Drawbacks (minor) -- the phenolic knob is only rated to 350 F, not a problem for braising, and the screw holding the knob on looks like it won't last nearly as long as the pot. Otherwise, looks and cooks the same as my 5 1/2 quart Le Creuset French Oven, retailing at Amazon.com for $159. Shouldn't be much trouble to replace the screw. Ikea also has a line of enameled cast iron pots and pans, designated "Senior" (who thinks up these names?) The 3 qt round French oven is $39.99, the 5 qt oval is $59.99. Only comes in a flame orange color. Nice handles. Otherwise pretty much identical to Le Creuset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lperry Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 If you have an affinity for Henckel knives as I do, head to TJ Maxx. I went to the one at Potomac Yard over lunch and picked up a 4 star santoku and bird beak parer for $50 and $20, respectively. The guy behind me got about six of the five star knives (those don't fit my hand as well), but there is still quite a bit left, mostly priced between $20 and $40. The 4 star 8" chef, for example, was $30, an incredible deal. I saw a cleaver, small serrated knives, boning knives, chef knives, santokus, and all sorts of parers.

zoramargolis Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Smart shopper alert!! The Williams-Sonoma Outlet at Leesburg Outlet Mall has a really good sale that started today and will last through this weekend. 40% off All-Clad (they sell seconds, which are already cheaper than retail), 40% off all tools and utensils, 40% off of edibles, 50% off cutting boards and dinnerware, 40% off Le Creuset, 20% off on all electric appliances, etc. Pretty much everything in the store has some discount on it, and there are some real bargains to be found. One of the saleswomen told me that if I am a AAA member, and have my card with me I can go to the food court customer service desk and get a free coupon book which will give me an additional 15% off of my most expensive item. I ended up paying about $70 for a 4 quart All-Clad stainless saucepan with a lid. Maldon Salt for $6. $20 cutting board for $10. A $25 Kyocera hand mandoline for $14.

zoramargolis Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 At the T.J. Maxx Friendship Heights store this morning, I saw a selection of All-Clad stainless: covered saute and frying pans in various sizes, the prices were very good. There were also a few Le Creuset round pots (seconds) in blue and red, small and large. I bought a large (like 10 qt.) French solid copper confiture pan for $99. Have not been to other TJ Maxx stores to compare their inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Blume Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Thanks for the heads up! While there are often copper pots of so-so quality, every once in a while there are some stunners like the one you stumbled upon or gorgeous, thick Italian pots.
