Just been informed that I have to find some BIG glass jars. Going to check thrift stores and restaraunts. Anyone have any tips on where to find some? Thanks.

Someone just had some 1 gallon glass jars on Kijiji for $1 each recently.

How big?
My wife just got some 1 gallon jars from Bed Bath and Beyond. Also got a 2 gallon at Walmart.

I bought a case of one gallon jars from Uline last fall.
Price was reasonable and delivery was to my local post office.

Only drawback is they only sell by the case, 4 jars.

stock number S-19317M
size, 1 gallon
Opening 4"
price 5.10 per case, 4 jars

Pickling jars come in sizes up to 2 gallons. They used to make bigger but haven't seen any of the 3-5 gallon ones for a while. Most Canadian Tires and Walmarts sell jars t oabout a gallon but if you can't find real big ones call these guys.

Ikea might be worth a look too.

Are you looking for canning jars I think you are on the right track checking thrift stores and Value Village assuming you don't want to pay through the nose for them

Thanks guys. I think I'll be heading to u-line tomorrow.

Are they for canning or for storage? I found some large ones with those wire cam-locks and gasketed lids at the Bay a few months back. I don't know the size of ours but they've got to be this size or bigger. Drawback: not cheap, good to watch if they go on sale.

Army and Navy on Whyte Ave had some nice gallon jars last year cause I bought 2. Pretty sure they would still have the same.
