Darn right. I just found a case of a dozen 12 oz. jars (Ball, I think)
at a local Kroger (King Soopers the in Denver area) for (hold onto your
hat) $10.97, IIRC. I thought twice (or maybe four times) before I
picked them up, but 12 oz is a size I rarely see and they are so
convenient when I'm making multiple batches of jam. The price was
obscene, but what are the alternatives?
