Chris in VA Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 Totally out of season, but these would make a good gift for my mom for Xmas--any idea where I could look for some? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana B Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 You might find some at Kmart/Walmart still - might even be on clearance still! Or you might find some on Craigslist (if used doesn't bother you - just wash before gifting!). Might need to post a 'wanted' on CL, but people always have them around! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted December 13, 2010 Author Share Posted December 13, 2010 (edited) Thanks, I'll look--I don't mind used, but she might....LOL. ETA--found some on Amazon. Decided to get her the smaller, 4oz ones. She makes good blueberry jam! Edited December 13, 2010 by Chris in VA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 You can find them year-round at a Hardware Store that carries kitchen items. You may want to check that out. Some grocery stores also carry them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LND1218 Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I have looked this time of year for jars. Stores like Walmart tend to not have them because they carry so many seasonally and rotate their seasonal stock. They clear them out - you may find some on clearance. But I have had the best luck this time of year stores like Big Lots or other surplus type stores or dollar stores or the grocery store. Smaller ones that tend to only carry small amounts often have a few boxes left sitting around. I often call around. Sometimes asking them to check the back. I have always been able to find a few boxes. Or you can order online, but shipping is usually high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara in AZ Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 I've purchased Mason jars in December before for gifts. I've never had trouble finding them at a regular grocery store in the plastic/paper goods aisle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommee & Baba Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 My Walmart has carried them all year round the whole 6 years we've lived in this region. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 You may be able to find them in a farm store. 4oz size is very small (1/2 cup volume). It may be fine for blueberry jam since it is so rich, but for my other jams I prefer the 6-8oz size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
