Oh yeah, Golden Harvest at Big Lots. I had forgotten about it, but I did buy jars there two years in a row. I don't remember if my Big Lots had just lids, though. Come to think of it, the last lids I bought were probably from Target, and that $0.74 does sound just like a Target clearance price, doesn't it?

Hey while I'm at it, Golden Harvest is good in that they package the jars in whole boxes which can be reused for storage. The Ball brand jars come shrink wrapped onto just a cardboard tray which doesn't provide such good storage for the jars later, empty or full.

A tip---I save the boxes our wine comes in. They are just about the right size for storing mason jars and have the cardboard separators so the jars don't clank against each other.
