Free Storage Canisters

Most products we buy today comes in a plastic bag or plastic jug. Taster Choice has taken a step back in time several months ago when they introduced their new coffee container. The coffee now comes in a glass jar with a lock-n-freshness lid. The black lids and crystal clear jars blends beautifully in my kitchen to serve as canisters for baking goods, candy, crackers, etc. In my bathroom you'll find these jars filled with cotton balls, swabs, bath salts and other hard to store items. The label is easy to remove, I wrap the jar is a soaking wet dish towel and leave it in the sink for hours then it will slip right off. The lids have a white liner that you can remove for washing. Make sure you put it back in correctly by pushing down around the edges so that it will lock on the jar. you can label the jars if you wish but I haven't found it necessary. One glance tells me what is in the container. Recycling these jars is like getting a free set of canisters and their use is unlimited.
This is our favorite instant coffee which we have used for many years.
The company changed from plastic jars to glass jars and I started collecting the jars as opposed to tossing them in the trash.

The labels come off beautifully, once empty, once put through the dishwasher. I keep nuts, washers, all kinds of things in my tool cupboard in them.
