<p>[QUOTE="J Dagger, post: 1511331, member: 10944"]I’ve been hoping for this exact thing for a long time but have yet to find it. Most stores around here don’t even have bins of silverware anymore like I remember there being back in the day. Savers only puts out parts of matching sets in bags. I guess they throw out the rest. Some of the Goodwills and Salvation Army’s still have bins but not all of them here. My one big silver score they had a shoe box behind the counter with something shiny in it. I almost didn’t even ask to look but thank god I did. It had a small sterling set broken into three bags. I told the manager I would take them then I ran back to the silverware bin. She had put a fourth bag in there that had the small demitasse spoons from the set in it along with a couple random pieces of sterling and plate. I guess she was hoping the same person didn’t get it all maybe? Needless to say I did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
