Buy one pan or a whole set?

So lately I've been having fun and games with my cooking, food sticking to the pan even though it's non-stick so it's kind of old obviously and it's crowned in the middle.

So I'm kind of debating buying a new set or should I just buy one or two pans and maybe 20 bucks for them, or go out and spend the $50 to buy a big set?

(I'll go Sunday morning to shop)

It's better to spend a little more on a single pan than buying a cheap set. A 26" saute pan covers most requirements. The new non-stick surfaces can cope with metal cooking tools, but you won't get those cheaply.

@novaguy2u errrr. I said cooking pan, not a bed warmer!! 26"????

But I did get a small 6 in pan for my eggs in the morning a larger dish which I just did stir fry in, plastic utensils thank you, and a griddle, I want to have pancakes!!!
