Jars and bottles

[Itsnotartitsdinner]

I am wanting to do home cooked goodies for Christmas gifts this year. Where do you find is best to buy nice bottles and jars from?

What state/city are you in??

From Cairns Karen 

Perhaps you could check out the op shops up there INATD, not sure what shops Cairns has.  Maybe some locals will help out with this query.

I have been looking for somewhere on the gold coast to buy nice small bottles to put homemade baileys in.  No luck yet

Oh great! Now I need to come up with a list of what to make any suggestions or an existing thread of this nature?

Here's one thread on Christmas hamper ideas.

No cheap as chips over here I'm afraid.

WA seems to miss out on a lot of stores that are in the eastern states.  There must be some sort of cheap jack stores over there surely.

Best place for jars and all things packaging  in Perth is Canning Vale
