Trappeur Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I was wondering for the ones who sell wholesale, how much do you wholesale the 8oz square mason jars for? I come up with a cost to make of $3.18 each so I was going to sell for 6.50 each. Does that sound right? Trappeur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franu61 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I wholesaled for $7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 Oh good.....I'm in the ballpark. I was thinking of doing 7.00 but my 16oz canning jars are 7.50 so I better stick to 6.50....but then I want to add some type of western hanging thing around the neck so then I could charge 7.00.

Arch Rock Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Trapp, could you describe or send a pic of that 8 oz. square Mason for me? You getting it from Fillmore? Fillmore says two sides are embossed with classic Mason measurement marks and the other two sides are "DE-bossed", which I assume means no markings. This must be true or you wouldn't be able to apply your awesome labels. Would like a confirmation if you don't mind. And is this true for the 16 oz. square Mason as well? I would love to find matching 8 oz and 16 oz containers that also have matching lids. Thanks bunches as clearly, you've been a busy beaver.

Trappeur Posted February 19, 2019 Author Share Posted February 19, 2019 The 8oz are all without embossing and are from Flaming. The 16oz jars are not square but are round and have1 side free for a label. This jar I buy at Save a Lot (no shipping). They are the Golden Harvest jar. They look like very similar to the mayo jars. I believe Aztec carries the Golden Harvest. Even though 1 is square and the other is round, they look very nice together. You can get the 16oz square jars from a few suppliers but they all have embossing (measurements) on the sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah S Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Many WalMarts carry a line of mason jars by Anchor that have completely smooth sides. They have the half pint and the pint size, and I think the quart as well. And they are slightly cheaper than the Ball brand. Not every location has them though. Sometimes I can find them at the store in PA, sometimes they are out of stock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debossed means the letters are indented. (Convex vs. concave markings.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it looks tacky and unprofessional. So try and get with no embosing. Trappeur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crafty1_AJ Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) I don't put it over embossing. Just debossing. Agreed ... it would look really weird over embossing. Edited February 21, 2019 by Crafty1_AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for clarification though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Rock Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I'm going to order some 8 oz and 16 oz "DE-bossed" from Fillmore and will let you guys know. Thanks for all the "bossing" chit-chat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 Hey Arch, so what 1 style jar did you buy in the 2 different sizes that has no "bossing" on them? So is that what you are going to offer to your prospective new clients? Trappeur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WendySue Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Hi, new here! About to make my first post. I bought these anchor hocking Mason jars from Fillmore a couple of weeks ago. They are both smooth on all sides. I guess you could call them square??? My newbie-ness wants to call them rounded square. They are 8 and 16 oz. The lids are 70/450 at .28 each. Please excuse my messy end table, it seems to have become my "office'. Lol! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
