Walmart has the Lodge 10.25 Cast Iron Skillet for $14.97 plus you get a $5 walmart gift card.

The same skillet without the giftcard is $14.88, so its a pretty good deal. However, you have to ship it to your house - store pickup is not an option. Shipping is free at $35 and it looks like they don't include the value of the giftcard, so you will have to spend $25.03 to get free shipping.

Also, don't waste your money on the little silicone slide-on grips Lodge sells; they do not help. You will absolutely still need to use an oven mitt when handling this pan even on medium heat on the stove. The handle gets HOT.

Also, I continue to reseason the pan after EACH use by:
1) immediately cleaning the pan
2) NEVER allowing water or moisture to sit in the pan overnight
3) steam cleaning the pan with burner heat followed by hot tap water (and scraping)
4) heating the pan after drying, to evaporate all residual water
5) rubbing down the pan with vegetable oil after step 4 (the reseasoning step)
The above steps work great, and I'm glad to have a cast iron pan in my culinary arsenal. As mentioned above, the silicone handle cover WILL get hot if you leave it on during cooking or baking. Take the silicone cover off as the pan cooks. Put the silicone cover back on when you're ready to transfer the pan. Or just use a heavy dish towel to grip the handle.

I have 20 year old Lodge pans that are very course and unpolished. That hasn't been something they've done in decades.

Which requires another $200 in tools and or labor
OK, if you do not own a drill, then MAYBE it will be that expensive. But, if like most people, you already own the drill...no...it will not even be close.
