MoT Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Hey guys Just thought i'd do some sharing and caring here, ASDA are selling 1700ml clip top jars for £1.75 reduced from an already reasonable £2.00, picked up a couple myself today rather than the £4.00 that IKEA wanted, They are also doing the 600ml for £1.25 reduced from £1.50 sure that's gotta be of some use to know! Oh and mods i'f i'm not allowed to post this, please delete.... :/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boojum Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I'd be wary about them, if they're the same type as the one I bought from ASDA a while back they're not airtight 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boojum Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I may have just got a dud one. The tall, square-base plastic containers (I think they're for cereal) they sell with the 'Smart Seal' lids are airtight, though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFord Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Having had so many issues with jars , i strictly stick to likner clip types and renew the seal annually with a home made one from silicone rubber sheet. Not snobbish , once i have burped sometimes it can be a long time before i visit a jar and tend to stack them , i find lesser brands & tub lids depress and leak if i stack. Each to their own and Dunelms had a wicked sale on kilners not so long ago. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not snobbish, i just expected a clip jar with a fucking siliicone seal, to actually seal..... what a joke, even without a sale i guess it's a decent reason to visit dunelm, i do like their bedding and duck/goose down pillows, and they arent a terrible ripoff for them, and the other bedding when discounted is a steal and lovely quality 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoT Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) Is there any way for one of the MODS to edit the thread title to "Curing jars that are absolutely shit!!!" please? Edited July 19, 2023 by MoT Not sure if you can tell but that's pissed me right off. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited July 19, 2023 by MoT Looks like "the range" can go and fuck themselves as well as ASDA, Don't seem to have a way to check if stock in store, and want to charge the same price as the item...to deliver it to the store, piss off ye fannys 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boojum Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 The square plastic cereal containers from Asda I mentioned are cool for jarring weed, the sealing mechanism works perfectly, they're what I use (they stack well too cos the lids are flat, not that I've yet grown enough to need stacking jars ). 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
