The silicone oven mitt has possibilities-- but the one I've used was
just too stiff to be useful.

[only 8 reviews- for 4 stars average]

She has a link to some standard measuring spoons-- I happen to love
this magnetic set. I think I paid less at Sam's club a couple years
ago - but I've never seen them again.

The pizza slicer link goes to some more twine-- But I love this one
from Sam's-

Kitchen shears--- I've got 3 pair that I use for various tasks--
cutting herbs, general use, and mostly cutting shellfish. The one she
links to looks OK- but I'd want to hold them before buying.

We disagree completely on the swivel store price rack. Anybody want 2
sets- new in boxes?

They looked like a good idea until I went to install them- then they
looked like they'd take up more room than the spices as I already had
them in the cupboard.

I looked through the 'cheap seats' - up to $50 and think it was a
pretty good list with the above exceptions/comments.
