The Great Jar Buy

You can find so many things on Craig's List and George knows that very well.  He will search there first before buying anything useful.  He bought the house he built on Craig's List along with several other items that are being used on the farm.  Yesterday he found the Great Jar Buy.  We use a lot of canning jars and last season we went through a lot.  We ask for the empty jars back but we are not always so lucky to get them back.  This season we are planning on more canning and now with George's Great Jar Buy we should have a good start with the jars.  A case of jars (12 in a case) normally run for $12 at Walmart which makes each jar cost $1.00 a piece.  With the Great Jar Buy George bought 250 jars for $90 making each jar cost about 36 cents; that is a huge savings!
George and Lisa had to drive to Kingsport, TN to pick up the jars at two different places.  The boxes of jars pretty much filled up the car.  When they got back to the farm they got the jars unpacked, did a quick inventory then placed them on the shelves in the new storage room.  Way to go George!
