Fifteen dollars for a bowl with a lid strikes me as expensive. I'm a frugal (cheap!) girl, and I had a hard enough time going from the "4 containers for $2 minus a $1 off coupon" Gladware to the "4 containers for $6-8 and no coupons" Pyrex glass dishes. I have to say I was intrigued and skeptical when I got to test out Life Without Plastic's stainless steel containers.
