I walked past the aisle at Walmart this weekend and thought hey it'd be a good idea to stock up on lids in Dec b/c they were hard to come by last year. They were out. Still. Like out out.

Looks like you can order them online at Walmart though. I actually just ordered them online at Target without shopping around and now I see they are cheaper at Walmart online but my mistake.

Scratch that below. Doesn't look like walmart ships them. Target did for a little more $. Shop around on your own I guess but heres the Target Links.

https://www.target.com/p/ball-12pk-64oz-mason-jar-lids-and-bands-wide-mouth/-/A-12911519#lnk=sametab



Anyway just a heads up. Go out to Walmart and buy some canning lids so you have them if you need them. Amazon prices are ridiculous on them. Hope it helps. Thanks.

I noticed that also. The little woman says a lot of folks put baking mixes in jars for Christmas presents. Maybe they will restock and stay on the shelf awhile longer.

That makes sense I guess. Just surprised me they were out. I got mine on order though. They keep forever and store fine so I'll just put them with my stuff and know I have them.

Something must be wrong with that link. I clicked on the wide mouth and it says 16.99. Is that for 12 packages of 12 lids (144) total? It certainly cant be for one dozen lids.

Ok the target lids are more reasonable.

There are some cheap knock-off lids on the market now too. Somewhere I got ahold of some that the rubber seal melts down from vinegar in pickles and sticks to the rim of the jars, and then to the washrags when you scrub it off the jars. I gotta find what brand is doing it.

Correct. My links are Ball brand. There are cheap no name brands on amazon. The Ball brand on amazon is high dollar. Maybe I'm wrong though. I asked the guy above for a link...

I found all kinds of lids the other day at our grocery store and at Bomgaars. I am stocked up for next season with 40 dozen. I still have some I carried over from last spring when I seen all the seeds and plants selling out. I am more concerned with garden seed than lids now. I have seed already to plant my garden as I saved as many seeds(heirloom) from as many vegetables as I could and will start my own plants this early spring by grow light. I put up 450 quarts of meat, vegetables and fruit this last growing season. I gave care packages out to church members that were struggling as well as to our kids for Christmas.

I don't know where this will end up but stocking up and prepping has always been what we do. Raise a garden and some broiler chickens. Lots of fruit trees go untouched around here and most folks will let you pick trees so they do not have to mow over them. LLL

I don’t can food but use a lot of jars to store oils, grease and parts I use the plastic lids they hold up better over time.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

You actually paid .89 each plus shipping for canning lids? Maybe I should rethink what I want to do with my stockpile. LLL

When on sale I can by vegetables in the can for .25. I could save myself money by buying those and spending more time fishing this summer. I paid 2.39 for regulars and 3.29 for the widemouths per dozen. LLL

We picked up a flat of regular lids at wallmart last week. They had wide and regular in stock,4 -5 flats of each size. 598 jars of meat veggies and fruit put up at our house this year. Setting good for next year on lids also. We could have bought everthing they had but we only buy what we need. And we do help out a few older folks that need a doz or so lids.

Free shipping over $79.00 and who knows when they will be available here again. .49 for regular and .58 for wide mouth. And I didn't have to deal with people while trying to find them. That's a win for me.
