MASON JARS
Preserving fruits and vegetables by canning is a smart way to save money and reduce waste. Save even more — nearly 50 percent — by purchasing the mason jars needed for the project at Walmart, where 12 pint-size Ball jars, including lids, cost $6.07, or about 51 cents each. At Dollar Tree, the same 16-ounce jars cost (you guessed it) $1 each.
