    Default Canning jars on Sale

    Do a search on google for Kmart stores. Then when you get their web site up, do a search for canning jars for your store zipcode and see what your store has in stock.

    They are having a sale this week for 1/2 off the regular price.
    Also other canning items are in the sale.

    I bought a total of 22 dz either 4.99 or 4.49 a dz today.
    Standard lids were .99 a dz but they were all gone. I did buy the last 4 dz of the wide mouth lids at 1.74 a dz.

    If you subtract the price of the collar and the lid, that makes these jars cheap. They are BALL jars btw.

    Also, I noticed that they were having a lot of other red tag specials in the store.

    You want to go tomorrow if you can.

    Only jars left on the shelf when I got done were 4 to a box of short fat ones. Not sure of the proper name for them.

    My guess is these might have been last years stock. But I am not sure. I asked a sales clerk and she said no more in the back room. Everything was out on the shelves.

    I bought quite a few jam 8 oz jars. I only was able to get 3 dz of quarts. And some pints size ones.

    I have to thank you again, I called and they pulled and are holding the jars and lids until I can get there later.

    I got 5 cases of pints and 5 cases quarts, 10 regular lids and 10 wide mouth... this saved Big bucks! I saved $85.95

    These are cheaper than getting them at a garage sale, and I am set for awhile. Thank you So much!

    I found out about this same deal that was posted on another site that both of us belong to...If your store doesn't have any left just ask for a rain check there is no limits @ least @ my store..I have a rain check for over 60 cases..also you don't have to redeem them all at once..

    I plan on going back to Kmart tomorrow and asking for a rain check on some of the flat lids. I never thought to do that the other day.
    I am way ahead on them now, and I intend to stay that way
