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.

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!

Sorry to hear that. 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.

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.
