The last time I was in New York visiting family, I paid my mandatory visit to Amazing Savings. For those of you unfamiliar with Amazing Savings, it is a small chain of stores on the east coast that has very, very low prices on tons of great things. One of the items that I always buy at Amazing Savings and take home with me is disposable tableware. Amazing Savings has fantastic prices on lovely plastic and paper tableware that I use, in particular, on Passover and Sukkot.
I use Amazing Savings prices as my yardstick for pricing paper/plastic tableware online; if I can get close to their prices or even beat them, I know that I'm getting an excellent deal on disposable tableware.
So because this NY trip was over the summer, I stocked up for Sukkot. I bought these really pretty white plastic plates with a lacey silver design around the edge (pictured above). They also come in ivory and gold. At Amazing Savings, a 10-count pack of these plates was $3.99 (40 cents per plate). I got several packs of the 10.25" plates and the 7.5" plates.
I love this pattern because I can mix and match it with a lot of other black, white and silver tableware (which I intend to do; I hate an uncreative, matchy-matchy table.)
(Now you can see how well these will coordinate with the silver cup deal that I posted yesterday.)
The 9" plates in this pattern were priced at $4.20. only 21 cents more than the Amazing Savings price and are also Add-On items. The 10.25" plates were $4.47, just 48 cents more, also a great buy.
I'm watching Amazon very closely now for other price drops on disposable tableware. Come Sukot table, I'm going to have a knockout table, (and only you will know how much I really spent).
