Buy something else if an air tight 64 ounce glass container is too expensive. Vacuum seal stuff in bags. It’s lighter and takes up less space than mason jars. |

They are out there , you just need to know where to look. We picked up 40-60 jars a month ago. Older thick glass jars. A Elderly man was selling off his wife's canning supplies. Look at the local groups for sale in your area and you will be surprised what you find. Lids are available also. We bought 4-5 boxes of brand new lids from the same person. Stores don't have the good heavy glass ones. Good luck and don't give up !!!

I see them at feed stores regularly. Wife has found them in target when she goes into the city. They are out there, we have probably 150-200 with 2 rotations of lids that we’ve picked up since Covid started.

It's a sample size of one, and it has been several months back, but a Wal mart neighborhood market here always had the quart and pint jars when no none else did. The normal wal mart stores have been keeping them in stock here lately, though.

That's funny, I have 2 cases of quarts and 3 cases of pints of both new Bell and Mason jars out in my shed right now, that I got a couple years back for my wife when she cans our fruits and veggies. Wife is pretty savvy also as she cleaned and sanitized some older jars my Mom had, and we also save back good jars/lids that look reusable from the store that canned products come in.
Just this year she was complaining about needing new lids and some seals and they couldn't be found anywhere when she needed them. BOOM! Went to shed and got her 2 boxes of each of those also. Sucks for those who didn't prepare. |

Ball jars with bands/ flats less than $1 jar at Walmart as of this am. Flats jumped 40% in last few weeks!!! ETA: Checked online, and Ball lids were substantially cheaper than in-store if you order for PU. Same with white gas, small propanes, etc. Some stuff 20-40% cheaper. Wide mouth ball.lids were $4.40ish this am. Ordered some more online a few minutes ago, for $3.18. Just got email that they're ready for PU. |

Try your local Dollar General. The type of people who generally shop at DG are not the uh.... type that plan ahead. Canning supplies are as foreign to them as EBT cards to people who work for a living.

Yeah, I probably have about that many stashed away too, all bought within the last year and a half. Bought regular mouth at around $2/doz but the wide mouth were all $3.50ish. With a little searching deals for used jars can be had on FB marketplace and Craigslist. I've bought a few hundred all around .25 to .30 per jar. These can be a better deal than the cases of new jars if you can source lids at a reasonable price. The other thing I have found is a FB group called "Rebel Canners." They give practical advise rather than parroting the alphabet bois rules. I have started saving used flat lids in good condition and reusing them, stretching out my stash. |

It was the same here in NW Ohio for a couple of months. Out of stock everywhere. Within the last couple of weeks they've been reappearing. Picked up another dozen Ball wide mouth quarts at Menard's yesterday for 12 bucks. They had plenty of lids and rings, too.
