Glass Mixing / Nesting Bowls w/Lids?

Looking to purchase a set of glass bowls that will be big enough to use as mixing bowls, but that also come with lids. I love the 10 piece nesting bowl sets that they sell everywhere, but I haven't seen any that have lids. I found one pyrex set at BB & B, but I'm wondering if anyone else has any suggestions.

    Saw a set today at Costco in Virginia today. $14.99 for a set of 3. The largest wasn't all that big. We have a set from W-S that we've had for years and love, but no lids. We use plastic wrap when we want to cover and/or store.

      +1. I like using plastic wrap/clingfilm much more than I would putting lids on bowls. It's so much easier to see what's in them. I buy the 18" size at a restaurant supply store every ten years or so.

      However, here are some things you may like from the Container Store: http://www.containerstore.com/shop?sh...

        I use the ubiquitous Arcoroc nesting bowls and for lids I have silicone universal lids. I collect stoneware nesting bowls for the aesthetic and romance of them but for everyday hardworking utility and a range of sizes there's nothing superior to Arcoroc that I've found. http://www.crateandbarrel.com/kitchen-and-food/mixing-bowls/10-piece-glass-bowl-set/s591303

        In the process of looking for a resource to identify the Arcoroc bowls I found this. Perhaps it's what you're looking for. http://www.mileskimball.com/MilesKimb...
