You can also make your own pies. Just get the already made crust and whatever filling you want to use. Our family used to also have one when we were really young and made our own after school snacks without having to use the stove.

Of course I didn't miss that.

As for pricing, how much did they originally cost when they came out?

I think imma go take my old sammich-thingamajigger out right now and eat some breakfast sammiches.

I just tried the best damn combo EVER. I used some sliced sourdough that I bought at Costco, cut the slices in half to fit into the sandwich maker, then added two slices of sliced Tillimook cheddar cheese (also bought from Costco, which I had to cut to fit into the bread since the bread isn't the same shape as the cheese).

After it's grilled in the sandwich maker something magical happens... Something simply AMAZING. So good that I took a pic of it. So much better with sourdough, by far the best grilled cheese Ive ever had. I eat it with pickles on the side.

When did you buy it? Do they have them at target right now? Im thinking of buying another since I make A LOT and it sucks to have to wait in between sandwiches, lol... Sometimes people come over and I make like 10 and by having two of them I could do that much quicker, especially since it's $10, lol!

Peanut butter and bananas also makes a good sandwich. I know it sounds kind of gross, but it's damn good!
