TJMaxx, Marshalls and Home Goods almost always have the dutch ovens in stock- I was in Home goods over the weekend and they had the oval shaped dutch oven for 35 bucks... Ok it was a ghastly orange - but the food doesn't care what color it is...

I was in Home goods last night and was looking at a pink enamaled pot, but it was smaller than I want. I will just have to keep my eyes peeled.
as far a cooking with cast Iron:
warm your pot before you cook, put it on the stove for a couple of min before you start cooking. As far as cleaning, I just saw a way on Good eats which I have not used. pour some salt in it, and rub with a paper towel. I would think it would knock off the big chunks, and keep the pan seasoned.
I do not use soap when I do, but I used to use a sponge and water, then dry it on the stove again. Anybody ever try this salt cleaning?
also for Cornbread, I think it is a necessity to use cast Iron.
