One of the local HEB stores here in way-the-heck-south-Texas has a bulk
foods section where one can get spices in small amounts. They have teeny
plastic zip bags and you load them with how much you want then weigh
them and print a label.

It makes it so much more economical when you need a little bit of an
esoteric spice that you don't ordinarily use.
