Check your local 'packaging' companies. Let your fingers do some walking and
start dialing a few phone numbers. Some deal in only boxes, others deal in bottles, canisters, plastic containers of all types. Joanne "Mike Krupt" > wrote in message ... > |

Your at $2.36 a bottle.That doesn't help me. I know he's at $1.73 a bottle and he's complaining.The shipping is killing him. At your price it brings me to $5.00 a bottle too.Where's the profit. People in my area are dying to get there hands on bottles but there are NONE to be had. He (local winery) won't buy them.He only supplies metric bottles.That's not what we want.We want US gallons.How about a quote from you and not W.C.Fields! Mike |

It's certainly not *my* prices that are at fault. I don't have a bottle supply company or anything of the sort. It's not going to be a productive search if you have such a bad attitude about it. -- charles "Once ... in the wilds of Afghanistan, I lost my corkscrew, and we were forced to live on nothing but food and water for days." - W.C.

But if it be thought that, either now, or at any future time, the citizens of the United States may be induced to undertake a thorough reformation of their whole system of measures, weights and coins, reducing every branch to the same decimal ratio already established in their coins, and thus bringing the calculation of the principal affairs of life within the arithmetic of every man who can multiply and divide plain numbers, greater changes will be necessary. U.S. Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, 1790 Gentlemen of the jury, Chicolini here may look like an idiot, and sound like an idiot, but don't let that fool you: He really is an idiot.
