Horseradish and English mustard are cheap too, but I definitely wouldn't want to go to that sort of party.

Swing top bottles are the same - if you do homemade fizz etc. The 750ml bottles are about £7 each empty. M&S do their traditional lemonade in them, and frequently have the bottles at 2 for £4.

I looked into buying some jars but even from a wholesaler it is significantly cheaper to buy 200ml jars of Tesco Value apple sauce (or mustard or whatever) and throw the contents away.
I was thinking next time, it would be fun to get some of those individual serving jars you see in hotels, as a nice way to give gifts. Again from the online wholesaler, their new empty jars cost ~45p + P&P. A pack of 60 on Amazon works out as low as 30p each (hardly a bulk order) including p&p
I am by no means an environmentalist but buying something to throw away is just daft, and upsets me. Similarly when it's cheaper to buy a CD on Amazon than it is to buy the MP3 version - the world's gone mad.
