I use peanut butter lids on regular canning jars for everyday storage. They don't rust if used in the refrigerator, and keep food fresh on the counter. I use them for non-food storage as well; such as band-aids with ointment. I haven't found anything to use on the wide mouth jars yet, any suggestions?

Tips for saving money on canning supplies. I do a lot of freezing and canning from the garden for the winter. My best tip is to plan ahead. I'm in RI and we have a store called Job Lot.
