There are so many things in this world that I am willing to
spend money on. Things that maybe don’t make so much sense to others but make
sense to me. There are some things that I don’t care what they cost I will
still pay for them like Tide or pedicures. But when it comes to Tupperware that
is where I draw the line. I mean I only own like two actual Tupperware products
and the rest are Glad or Ziploc brand from the super market and those
babies I hold onto for life.
A few months ago my husband surprised me ( I look at it as a
surprise because like I said I look at these as something I don’t want t spend
money on) by buying all new Tupperware and throwing out the old. After saying “wow!
Thanks!” I then went into snide remarks like “well how much did that cost
us?!?!” and you know what? I had placed my same belief on my husband. I had him
also thinking Tupperware was too much money. Do you know those plastic bad boys
only cost like two or three dollars for several? Still I find that they are
something I don’t want to spend money on.
When I first went to use the new plastic containers it was
pasta night and I found myself lining this two dollar plastic container with
Saran Wrap so I didn’t get it all red and stained. My husband had a good laugh
at me on that one. Yesterday I was heating up pasta for lunch for Gracie and I
was all ready to put the pasta in another bowl to heat it up so it wouldn’t
stain our fabulous plastic containers and then I thought fuck it we will get
new ones sooner than later because how much could those lovelies really set us
back right?
I guess some old habits do die.
I have heard that if you spray your Tupperware with a non stick cooking spray before you put pasta in it, they won't stain. ;)
ReplyDeletereally? need to keep that in mind next time!
DeleteIt is funny I am the same way. I cut coupons look for deals yet I have to have TIDE and phildelpha cream cheese hehehe :)
ReplyDeleteThere was a time when Tupperware was THE thing to have. It was the Cadillac of plastic containers. Still are. They are so expensive cuz they will last through a nuclear bomb. I have TW from my mom that us older than me and still in great shape. So I'd rather spend $ on TW instead of clothes my kids will outgrow in a month. :)
