Which is why I triple bag the sugar.

I re-cycle old peanut butter jars...the big plastic ones. When thoroughly cleaned and sanitized, they are great for storing yellow or brown sugar.
I place a layer of cling film over the jar before sealing and it works quite well. I use them for icing sugar as well.

WTF is "extra air"?

Notbob, sorry, that was a silly thing to say. Pretend I left
the word "extra" out.

In any event you could figure out what I meant.

You're probably one of folks who never changes the air in his tires.

On an unrelated note:

OK, something just kind of hit me today. I thought about the expression, "Fly in the ointment." You know, it's ointment. It's not like you're going to be eating it or anything. It's just ointment. Pick the damned fly out and use the damned ointment. Jiminy, it's just ointment.

Changing the air in what tires? On your car? Bicycle, etc? Never heard such a thing.

You sound like someone who uses three condoms... then why bother???
It must be a hassle futzing with several zip-locs for a stinkin' spoon
of sugar... as if I believe you. I keep brown sugar in a one quart
glass mayo jar. I don't store foods long term in plastic bags,
especially for something used often like sugar... I bet you wash those
three condoms and been reusing the same ones. LOL
