While most travelers may look for unique souvenirs to take home, for chef and food writer David Lebovitz scours, coming across old pots and pans is like stumbling upon a gold mine. That's especially true if the cookware bears the Le Creuset name. "I'm a random collector of Le Creuset," Lebovitz admitted in a blog post from 2015. Passed down for generations within French families, he also confessed that the famous Paris flea markets are the ideal place for him to find them.

Le Creuset's Factory to Table sale offers great deals on Dutch ovens, braisers, cast-iron grills, colorful bowls, herb planters, and miniature cocottes, making it an excellent shopping opportunity.

"It is overwhelming the amount of stuff that's there," Horton says.
