You can buy just any bowl at most stores (Wal-Mart, K-mart, etc.). It's JUST a garbage bowl!! If you must have the one that Rachael uses, go for it. But with money being tight, just use any old bowl. I actually, grab my garbage bin, pull it over where I'm cutting, etc. & just throw right in - saves one extra step. Just depends how your kitchen is set up. I'm sorry, but spending MUCHO bucks on a bowl just for garbage just doesn't sit right with me. But, whatever, go for it if you wish.
