I like them for whole fermented dill pickles. She uses them for fermented carrots and like you storage of dry goods.
Over Christmas she was making fudge and told me she ran out of sugar and asked me if I would run to DG? I said nope but hold on. I went downstairs to the canning room found 1/2 gallon of sugar she put up and walked it back up stairs to the kitchen. She gave me a big ole fat kiss. A kiss speaks a thousand words, a big ole fat kiss, many thousands of words

I have about 4dz of the half gal. I use to milk into and store fresh goat milk. 
I need more. We don't have a Menards here. But, TSC and WalMart carry some. Have a dz 1/2 gal jugs with side grip, just for ease of pouring...customers and friends use, return for exchange empty/full. I special order those.
Getting time to pick up those things every chance! Kids and gardens soon!

Well, strawberries and asparagus are entirely different, perennial beds. Start tilling.

My son gave me a two bottom and as soon as I get up the courage, I'm going hitch it up and put it to use. I kind of would like just a single bottom but the way the plow is built there is no way the convert without cutting it with a torch. It's an old ferguson, like a WWII era beast of a thing. The thing is intimidating looking it looks just like this one, rust and all.Well, strawberries and asparagus are entirely different, perennial beds. Start tilling.

I brought 7 buckets of SHTF stuff yesterday, it’s stacked in a closet. Got a few more to bring. Won’t have a garden this year, that will feel weird. @CrealCritter you plant and have a bodacious garden this year and post pictures. I can live vicariously through you. LOL

I think some of those would do really well in raised beds, which you can put anywhere.Hush... My wife planned the garden for this spring.

That was a real good price for Golden Harvest. Here the cheapest price I have seen is 3.95.... when you can find them. I have had VERY GOOD results with that brand... and I prefer their jars for the attractive designs on the sides... and the prices. Since the lids are all made in the same factory it doesn't make sense to pay more for the "name brand".... and growing up we always used Kerr if we had a choice. I have many dozens of bail top glass jars that I recently bought some jar rubbers for to see if they will work. The jar rubbers are not as big as the old ones they used to make... so it will be an experiment. I also have about a case of Tattler Lids and the rubber rings for them....
