I did, and I found one for a very good price.

Do you also see the blue flag for additional savings that does nothing?

Nice find but too small.

It comes in different sizes. The 6oz seems perfect for a soup ladle.
My old one that broke was probably about 4oz.

The description said 3.75 length. I at first did not scroll down. The 4 is under 2 bucks.

The length and width are the diameter of the bowl. The 6oz is $2.48.
I ordered two. I did notice that the additional savings thing, as you
said, does nothing.

For 2 bucks counting the drive? I know I was not asked.

But he works for Target and they, at least the store nearest me, has a large selection
of kitchen utensils. I'm guessing he'd get a discount for being an employee, too.

If Popeye were still functional, he would have a lot of fun with
your 4 oz ladle.

He'd say something like "It's only good for scooping cum off'n
yoose bedposts".

It was $2.48 with free Prime shipping. The cheapest one at Target
is $4.49 ($3.84 after discounts), and only ships with $35 purchase.

Here's something that is a good deal at Target right now.

We've spent the last few days gardening hours a day. Every one of
our yard waste bins is full. This working part time business is great.
This is the year that the bush honeysuckles die. All of them. Cut,
drill, Roundup. As soon as the wind dies down a little more, we'll be
out there again.

Yes! Or spooning small doses of breast milk from the source.

I have a couple of beautiful ladles. What I really need is a beautiful spatula.

I put down a rubber mat to block weeds about 4-5 year ago and rubber mulch
from Home Depot. Mulch has a 10-year guarantee and still looks great.

This is for use with edibles, where we wouldn't want tire rubber.

I got mine at the Dollar Tree. The one before that, same place.
Sure they're cheaply made and you have to be careful digging
into thick congealed food, but it's well worth it. I am really glad
the dollar store exists or I'd be in trouble.

Very good point, Joan.
Bryan is rich enough to quit working (or mostly) early.
Why is he penny-pinching such a cheap utensil?
You could even find one in a dollar tree for half the Amazon price.

You can't get a nice metal one at Dollar Tree. A big part of the
reason why I'm "rich enough to quit working (or mostly) early"
is frugality, and because I've lived that way all of my life, it's a
hard habit to break.

little hard to pay for parking. I used to park on Central, just
north of the library and walk the two or three blocks," Ian
said, as they drove into the parking garage.
********

And you can call it penny-pinching of you choose, but "A
penny saved is a penny got." You know who wrote that.

A particular DT may not have a similar item...

So Bryan is saving time and money by using an online source instead...
