LPT: Instead of buying cheap plastic dinnerware, buy used restaurantware. It's very sturdy and the vintage stuff is inexpensive if you don't have to pay shipping (i.e., buy it from a local antique shop or at an estate sale).

Post Body

Restaurantware is very resilient -- it resists chips and breakage to an incredible extent. There are a lot of great vintage patterns (see, e.g., Syracuse, Iroquois or Buffalo china). There's a lot of this stuff about, sold at antique shops or on eBay, Etsy or similar. If you don't have to pay the shipping (sturdy = heavy), you'll find you can own a terrific dinnerware set with far more diverse options (cereal, fruit and sauce bowls, platters of various sizes, bouillon cups, etc) than you will find in the plastic or stoneware options available at Walmart, Target or other low-cost outlets, with a far better quality. Plus everyone in your life will always have something to put on their "watch for this" list as potential gifts for you -- the odd pieces like creamers (which are great for sauces or syrups), serving platters, little relish plates, etc.
