A real trip down memory lane. I'm still using the set of two Pyrex casserole dishes (Chelsea pattern - although I never knew this) and apparently they were £1.55 for a 2 and 3 pint set. They were a wedding present over 50 years ago and not a mark or chip on them.

You sat at home and went through it and marked the items that were on your wanted list.

The kids marked theirs in the toy section.
