Candlebuddy Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Does anyone use the 12-sided type jar for their candles? I'm thinking about adding another style of jar to my line, and I'm looking for some opinions. I use 6006 and zinc wicks. TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I've been eye balling that jar too. They are little pricey and I worry about adhesion problems. I might get a sample case and give it a whirl.Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 I found the 9oz size at www.fillmorecontainer. com for $5.60 a case, and the 10oz size at www.candlescience.com for $6.49 a case. I think they may do well around the holidays because they're fancier than my 8oz jelly jars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 (edited) The lids are 2.28 which makes it a total of $7.88 a case and then add shipping. The best deal I have found is SKS is offering free shipping on $250.00 orders. They have a great assortment of jars but the best prices are on the salsa or straight sided jars. I figured that I can get 24 cases of 12 oz jars and lugs and 12 cases of 9 oz with lugs for $277.92 which averages to .64 cents a jar. The no shipping allows for more jars to be purchased. If anyone can find a better deal let me know. You could get 42 cases of 8 oz plain jelly jars with gold lids for $6.00 a case and no shipping if you bought 42 cases. You could go in with a friend and really do nicely. HTH.Steve Edited June 18, 2010 by chuck_35550 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jipow Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I use to get the 12oz 12side jar from candle science and really liked them, no hang up issues at all, but they quit carrying the 12 oz size, so I switched to the 12 oz hex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carol k Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 That what I use. I have no problems with them using gb415. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
