What to buy, what to buy...

I've got a 25 percent off coupon at a local store that expires soon, and figure the best bang for the buck is a somewhat pricey high quality item. And lo and behold! Le Creuset. The selection is limited to what they have on hand. I've narrowed it down to an oval casserole that they have in matte black, and what is described as the buffet casserole which is a shallow round pot with a cover.

Any opinions? If they had decent sized a round dutch oven, I'd go for that in a heartbeat to replace the cheap one I have, but they only have the 3 1/2 quart size, which is a little smaller than I want.

They also have the Doufeu by le Creuset, which is the oval pot where you're supposed to put ice on the lid when you put it in the oven. This seems pretty gimmicky to me, but if anyone's got experience with these, I'd be happy to hear about it.

Otherwise, I may end up spending my coupon on the big bag of weed 'n feed.

Help me spend my money wisely on a good kitchen item.
