You never have enough jars.

It will be nice this summer not having to buy jars and lids during canning season

Seeing more examples of canning jars in plentiful supply. Prices are coming down, too

the price at our "local" wallys world was not much changed and large mouth lids were still bad and small mouth were also higher than i'd like but we did pick up a few boxes of the large mouth lids since i've not seen those much at all. amazing what they are charging for a small bit of metal and some gunk around the edge, but i do know they have the costs of the factory and people and all that... so... reuse the lids as much as we can for other things. that saves some expense later. we sure do try to get our money's worth out of all of them.

Anybody heard from @Chic Rustler ?

He signed off in his journal, never stated a reason

I drink soft drinks rarely...like maybe once or twice a year a drink. But YES prices are way, way up.

Of course, predicted to be a 6-8% overall on groc this year and some things as much as 10-12%. Dairy, meats, etc. On higher end. As we all know, grow and preserve all you can to reduce buying. Home cook.

It's bad and getting worse. But I feel ok because of things I don't consume, my farm production -- eggs, dairy, garden, poultry & goat. This is true for many of us. Consider where you are and where you can improve. 😊
