That seems to be the lowest price per cup you can get already, and the 40% off makes it much sweeter. If you put 20 in your cart, the total is exactly $99 and qualifies for free shipping.
I'm going to throw out all the random junk plastic food container I have when they arrive. Not having flat sides will be a bit annoying, but I am sure I can live with it at this price. The ones I will inevitably not need are going to be gifts.
In case anyone is wondering, every Pyrex glass container is rated for a preheated oven at 'normal' baking temperatures. To me, that's 350 degrees, but a quick internet search says 425 degrees. The absolute key is you must preheat the oven before putting it in. You also dont want to put it directly under the broiler (heating element), so move it to a lower rack, or move your racks lower. Taking it directly from a freezer to the oven is a terrible idea, but I guess people used to do this in the past or something. It's the quick temperature change that is the problem, so avoid that. Ways to avoid it are putting the frozen contents in, or on, another non frozen container. If that container is pyrex as well, just defrost the darn food before heating it regularly. Your microwave conveniently does this and can proceed to warm it up normally after. While it's tempting to just take a big dish of frozen food and reheat it fast, that's for those store bought highly processed frozen meals that come in a plastic container.
I've dug around, and I found posts from 2008 with the exact same advice from Pyrex for old PYREX glass that is being spread around about new pyrex glass. They literally never changed their advice and warn sudden temperature changes can cause the glass to crack. Regardless if people used it wrong in the past with (luckily) OK results, it was wrong and is still wrong.
