kandlekrazy Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I'm looking for some of the hard plastic bottles for fo, I believe they are PET. Doesanyone have a reasonable supplier for them? I've tried to search but end up gettingdog water bottles, lol. Guess I don't know the correct language. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) i am not sure where you are..but essentials by catalina in Calif. have some pretty good prices..Have you checked, for amber glass in your area?it is the best way to store, if you can get them..I have had some Berts stored for over 3 yrs..and they are still as good a new..my personal opinion, is amber glass is the very best way to store..

justajesuschick Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Can you share where you get the amber bottles?Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 Shipping is killer on the glass bottles, but EBC I can pick up when I go South if she has them. I haven't made any B&B in over a year so I haven'tchecked her site, I will do that now. I was able to find some PET on ebay that seem like prices are good. I'm not so worried about light gettingat the fo because it's in a cabinet, but tired of the soft plastic bottles collapsing or cracking from the fo. All my GW are in the hard plastic and I never have a problemwith them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carol k Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 http://www.midwestbottles.com/ Great prices, fast shipping. Since they are just being used to store fo's in check out the closeout seciton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Cannot seem to find some locally but I will keep looking. Uline has them (of course) and shipping on 2 cases is just $15, so not too bad.Thank you!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara AL Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 That is a good price on shipping if you want to save your fragrances. I have some fragrances I paid way over $30 a pound for from TSW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) I believe specialty bottle has the amber glass as well...not sure about their shipping.I ended up ordering on ebay, some guy has 5000 of the 8 oz PET Boston rounds with dispensing caps that he can't use. I paid $20.00 for 25 with caps and FREE SHIPPING! Edited March 6, 2013 by kandlekrazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I LOVE free shipping!Most other places I checked wanted double Uline. More like $30 for glass bottles. Uline also was happy to take back a case of the wrong cello bags I ordered once so I remain impressed with their service.Glad you found your bottles!

kandlekrazy Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 Yes Uline has awesome service and they ship very quickly, I order polypro bags for shaped melts and bubble wrap for our store from them. Shipping seems to be a killer almost everywhere now so I'mtrying my best not to place small orders...but it's really hard when you need 2 fo's and don't want to add new scents! I'm lucky to be able to shop at the GW store when I travel South. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom30601 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I get a lot of my bottles form SKS Bottle & Packaging, Inc. They have pretty much every bottle you can imagine ina wide variety of materials (PET, HDPE, LDPE, Glass, etc.) and colors (Amber, Green, Blue, Clear, etc.). I also like that you can buy the tops and bottles separately at bulk prices, which can save a bit of money and give you more options. Worth a look.

Mountain_Annie Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Hi ladies, (& gents) I have a few questions:#1. Does anyone know...off the top of their head: What's considered "a good price" (or going rate) for the PET bottles these days? Including basic, black caps or similar...for 2, 4 & 8 oz sizes? I just ran out of a huge supply that I've had for years.#2. Do any of you have spare PETs for sale, at a good price, in various sizes? 4 oz'ers would probably be sufficient for now. I'm just in need of "mixer" bottles so the glass bottles are not necessary. Thanks a bunch! Edited June 4, 2013 by Mountain_Annie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OldGlory Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Hi Mountain Annie! I don't have any PET bottles for you but I saw that you are from my neighborhood and wanted to say hi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain_Annie Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Hello to you Old Glory! =o) It's always nice to meet folks nearby. I've been a member here for years but it's been quite a while since I've had the time to visit CT. I've missed my friends here & it also looks like I've missed a lot of great sales! I MUST have been away longer than I thought because I see that my entire friends list has been deleted. :~( Ok...I'll just start over again...inviting you as first on my new list. ;o) Hope to talk to you / see more of you...here on the forums. (warm smile) Hi Mountain Annie! I don't have any PET bottles for you but I saw that you are from my neighborhood and wanted to say hi.
