Where to buy new cookware

[MrsBridenstine]

I'm reading all the hazards of non stick cookware and want to go buy new asap.

 

Where did you get yours, roughly how much was it, and how well do you like it? Thanks in advance.

I bought a set of Calphalon stainless steel tri-ply cookware from Kohl's department store. They have some excellent sales. The regular price was $500 for a complete set of pots and pans, the sale price was $300. They are heavy and I love them. I did a lot of cost compare and quality analysis and they are every bit as good as the All Clad which would cost more than double on sale elsewhere. I don't know if you have Kohl's in South Dakota, but here is how it works. They often have fabulous sales. If you get a credit card, you get advance notice of sales plus extra coupons, plus a discount for opening a card. I will use the card at the register and write a check at the same time so I don't ever pay interest. One thing though, they send coupons and say you will peel off a sticker and get 15, 20 or 30 percent discount at the store. Different customers get different coupons. At the register they will have scratch-off coupons and will give you one chance to increase your discount. When I bought the pans my coupon was 15%, but there was a stranger behind me in line with 30%. I asked her to borrow her coupon for my sale and handed it back to her for her to use it as well. That saved me a total of $90, so my pans were $210 for the set. I couldn't be more pleased with this cookware and I cook a lot.
