Mystically, when I was buying most of my supplies at the walmart near where I lived, I came down to the jars on my list and they were right next to me, lucky me. (The girl at the checkout lane gave me a really weird look when she saw all the weird stuff I was buying). They were one pint, and I had no clue where to find where else in the massiviness of walmart the rest of them would be, but I think they would have them. I have also seen them in Albertsons Grocery store on the top shelf above the flour. Dont know if you have either of those in your area, but they are pretty big stores that as far as I know, carry them.

You're right, it's a stupid question.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

Yeah Walmart has them in all sizes, Albertsons has them but not 1/2 pint wide mouth which are the ones i mostly like to use. Also some other supermarkets have them. It can be a pain in the ass to find them sometimes but one of your supermarkets will have them you could also check your local drug stores and hardware stores.

I found mine where i got my cheap ass pressure cooker, at Bennys. Depending on where you live you may not have one of those. I believe Bennys may be a New England thing. But yeah, almost anyplace will carry 1/2 pint and other sized tappered canning jars. If you havnt found any, it means you havnt been looking hard enough. Walmart and all those other mart like stores, such as Target and Kmart, are a good start, yes, but even Sears will probably carry them in their kitchen/cooking section of the store. And at that, most kitchen supply stores should have them, if they dont, throw a brick through their window, they deserve it for not carrying such an item and calling themselves a kitchen supply store.

You can use disposable Ziplock 1/2 pint containers about 5 times before the lid gets deformed..but otherwise they hold up to PCing just fine. That icon looks like someone scratching their balls...strange!

They have them at Super Valu too. Prolly IGA and all the rest as well. But I also find lots at yards sales. Picked up 4 dozen this week for $2.50 a duz. Also, a big hepa filter for $12!
