Saved from the dumps

Remember the burnt saucepan?

I had packed it into a garbage bag and left it outside to be collected by the garbage collector the next morning. As we wanted a good quality stainless steel saucepan, we bought the Zebra brand which costs us RM60. Seeing how expensive the saucepan was, mum decided to take it back and tried to scrub off the soot. And here’s the result…

I’d say it is 90 – 95% of its original condition, except for the melted knob on the cover. But the screw that held the knob together is still in perfect condition.



Looks like the burnt saucepan will be reinstated to full service.

Wow..your Mom's good! RM60 for a saucepan sounds pricey - check out IKEA. I got a really nice, big, non-stick one for about RM89.

Beckysmum - that's the thrifty gene at work.

Mybabybay - credit goes to my mum, she scrubbed it clean for me.

Kittycat - I think so too, but I think Zebra costs about that, unless we get them from Haadyai, which is a lot cheaper.
