Trade Me is also a good place to look, search under preserving.

I bought a heap a couple of winters ago when we had a stack of feijoas.

For jams and chutneys I re-use glass jars such as jam jars, pasta sauce etc. You can find them in op shops for 50c each (that's what I apid at our Salvation Army shop).]]> Wed, 25 Jan 2012 15:52:01 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41410&PID=1425501&title=glass-jars#1425501 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41410&PID=1425486&title=glass-jars#1425486 Author: SethsMama

I only use them to store baking stuff though so not sure about how they seal for jams etc.]]> Wed, 25 Jan 2012 15:20:18 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41410&PID=1425486&title=glass-jars#1425486 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=41410&PID=1425458&title=glass-jars#1425458 Author: minipig

Can anyone tell me the best place to buy glass jars for storing homemade chutney/jam? We have hundreds of plums so I want to have a go at making some on the weekend.
