Couldn't believe it.  It was right as I walked in the door, and if I hadn't been bored by the guys looking at the TVs, I never would have noticed it.  It was an 18pc. Picardie set w/ 3 sizes of glasses for $24.  I got two Embarrassed.  I don't think I would have indulged except that I've been drooling over them for over a yr., because I hate plastic.  Sadly, they do break on our ceramic tile floor (thus the need for 2 boxes), but at least they make pebbles, not shards. 

I was wondering if they'd have more items on their site but I didn't find any.  Maybe the glasses will be a test run?  Ka-tom is where I got most of what I have today.  Thankfully the plates don't get dropped as often as the glasses, so those have lasted longer.  One day, I'll be free of my 15yr. Corelle.  The Corelle breaks too, but we just happen to not give them to the kids as often.  Then, I'll have all glassware in the kitchen Smile.  Other people get spots, I've heard, but we do alright, both by hand-washing and in the washer.

oh yeah, this is kid-gear related because it's glass that rarely breaks when it drops (unless you have hard ceramic over concrete, like we do).

Hmm, I'll have to check it out. Pics? Link? I'm interested! We are looking for new dishes that will last but are heavy duty and really nice looking. Price doesn't matter, we're saving up.

This is the site that has the entire collection (not just cups).  It's glass dinnerware under Lys/Duralex.  We have only a few small bowls and the smaller plates.  Costco doesn't have it online as far as I could tell.
