I’m not laughing! I was just in Walmart less than an hour ago - the ONLY thing on their canning shelves were 3 packages of regular-sized lids, which I now regret not buying! No other lids, no other rings of either size.
I did score some Mrs. Wages Salsa Mix, which I LOVE and doctor up myself when I make Salsa in the late summer/fall.
I have an OK stash of jars, but lids ARE getting to be a problem.
We’re going on a Menard’s Run (local Big Box like Home Depot) tomorrow and I’m going to scour that place for jars & lids, too! It’s located in a College Town, so I’ve got my fingers crossed that ‘the college kids’ aren’t into canning like I am! :)
P.S. I’ve entered a crocheted Afghan in the County Fair two years in a row now (Blue Ribbon Winner!) so I know what you mean about your ‘craft’ being compromised. :(
you should’ve bought em!
