Putting My Wishlist to Good Use

Apparently updating the wishlist on my sidebar was a good idea.  I have already purchased something I wanted, but even better because I found it at a better price and I like it better than the one on my wishlist.  See those glass canisters on the top of the list? 

I thought they would be a great addition to all the kitchen supplies I’ve been collecting for my studio apartment.  They only cost $19.99 as well, which means I could actually afford them.  However, while at Target earlier this week, I came across this seven piece ceramic canister set at an even more affordable price:

It is made by Room Essentials, who make a lot of affordable products mainly aimed at young poor college students like me.  These canisters are perfect – they are white (so they match everything), they create a great airtight seal so nothing inside will spoil and they come with sleek stainless steel scoopers.  And seriously, those little ones are so cute I may not even put anything in them but keep them out on display anyway!  And it all only put me back $15!  Nice!  Here they are in my mom’s kitchen:

The best part about these is that for a tiny bit of cash, I have bought a quality set that could possibly last me the rest of my life.  I can’t get enough of quality at low prices and since they are a neutral color, they will never go out of style.  If you are need of some canisters, you should consider these because they are a great buy at a great price.

What has been your best purchase lately?  Have you bought anything that has outlasted its worth based on the price?
