I went junking today, looking for interesting old junk, or vintage things. Also, to be frugal and only buy half price things. At St Vinnies I found three of these jars, and was thrilled because they are all 1/2 gallon size. The jars that are larger than one quart are found infrequently. What will I do with them? I plan to use them in my pantry to store dry goods, rice, bulk items, dried mushrooms, basil, and pasta. Much nicer than plastic, and I can easily see what they contain.
