Oh, I know what you're saying. Bon...Hi Belinda,<br />Oh, I know what you're saying. Bonne Maman, isn't quite so expensive, here, $4.99/ jar at Fred Meyer/Kroger. But even at that price, I've only bought it for a special occasion, and when I wanted a specific type of jam that wasn't made by a less-expensive manufacturer. However, to my surprise and delight, lots of people buy the jam, don't have a use for the pretty jars, but either add the jars to free piles or send them to Goodwill. At Goodwill the other day there were about a dozen of the jars for 20 cents each. I chose the best-looking of all of them (on some, the inside of the lid was a little stained from the preserves), and was a very happy camper. The lady from whose blog I copied the candle photo gets her jars second-hand from her mother-in-law. <br />As far as the actual preserves in the Bonne Maman jars, you and I can make our own preserves, saving a lot of $$!

I think I did something nice with a jar that would otherwise go to the recyclers.Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-81114755611509853562018-07-28T11:32:29.754-07:002018-07-28T11:32:29.754-07:00The picture of the candle is very pretty.
