If anyone has been trying to find jars, I see a local store has a large supply, at the moment. If you need some now is the time to get them! I could not find any lids/rings, however. Pint jars were about $9.50/doz with lids/rings.

Plenty of jars here but lids are scarce. We can a lot of produce each year so I was grateful to find both regular and wide mouth lids to see us through for a couple of years. Like ammunition, being in the right place at the right time was key!

I'm seeing some jars with lids but haven't seen anything for lids.. I managed to buy this time last spring and found enough I think have what I need for this year. I won't be passing on buying more if see them in regular price range. I'm not afraid to use the off brand lids but haven't even seen them.

Jars a plenty around here. I ordered 250 lids, 200 regular and 50 wide mouth through Amazon for around $60 shipped about 2-3 months ago. Glad I did. The gardening thing is big again. I got my seeds ordered through Youngs with only two items out of stock. The seeds came today, the plants as weather determines.
Bryce Check those lids from Amazon.I ordered a bunch that were advertised as Ball lids,,and they sent me Chinese knock off lids.Open them up and make sure the lids say Ball Sure Tight on them.The lids I received said nothing on them.I called Ball and they said DONT use them.Dont even know if they are food grade,,and they received a lot of calls like mine.Amazon refunded my money.

All rare as hen's teeth. add doors to that list wife works for the door factory , people have been waiting 6 months for special order entry doors there was the glass shortage , lumber prices have goon up , so much for global warming their plants that should have been south of any major snow had a few major snows shutting down shipping for days. yesterday they got notice that the TX snow storms caused enough damage to a supplier the supplier will not be able to get them that major component for a couple months. AND THEY MADE MORE DOORS IN 2020 THAN ANY OTHER YEAR by about 30% more worked overtime most of the year at 48 hours a week. with people not spending big money on travel and tourism , cruises , vacations to far away places they are putting that cash at home improvements.

We got the same knock off lids when we ordered from Amazon. I didn’t like the way they looked when they sealed. You would think making a round metal disc with a bit of rubber on the edge would be simple, but somehow the Chinese screwed it up.
