You just need to order them before you need them. I know this is bullshit. All my ISO is out everywhere too. I was getting the little bottles of 99% for a buck a piece on sale. That's $8 a gallon. Now I can't even get it in stores, and all the prices got jacked up. Same with all the grow supplies right now. Everything is in higher demand now. Too bad everyone decided to start growing weed at the same time, lol.
If I had known they wouldn’t have been in the store, I would have ;).

I know what you mean. I was told the ISO problem was due to sanitizing due to the pandemic. Anyway, I've ended up buying 99% for $44.65 at Amazon (they have cheaper. this was better grade). It was so nice when we could just bop on down to Walmart & get these things at nice prices!
Who knows, maybe it'll get back to 'near normal' again.....this 'new' normal is killing me (and, I'm sick & tired of the term!!!!!)
oh, I just checked, and the price has actually gone down :o! It’s now $38.98. I thoughtit would have gone up;).

Well my wife just found a couple 91% ISO's at Walmart. She was shocked to see it there finally. She checks every time she goes to the store. It's on the way home now, lol.

I'm still 'self quarantining' due to high risk for COVID (illnesses = low immune system/pre-diabetic & have COPD), so my husband does ALL the shopping (he does anyway due to me being so ill.. :rolleyes:....), so he'll have to check. He hates Walmart! It was the one store I did the shopping at (when I couldn't get it online) before COVID. Anyway, thanks. I'll have him check. I always checked for the 91% ISO every time I went, too ;).

I ordered my jars online. And whenever I order online I order the 2 pack of ISO also.

I ordered Ball jars online from Walmart. They accepted and confirmed my order. I was to pick them up at my local store the next day. They charged my credit card.
The next day I got an email saying my order was cancelled.

This happened Twice. Screw Walmart.

Ditto! I used to order from Walmart all the time. I'm ill and online ordering is my way to shop. Well, Walmart lets you look up an item, shows they have it, put it in the cart.......then, when you get to check out...and, this happened to me three times before I totally quit shopping there:

I got to check out and all but one or two of my items ended up being "out of stock".... None of them said that when I put them in my cart, but waited until check out. It was maddening to spend all that time just to end up with one or two items..... no more! :wall:

oh, love your tag name! Fringe was one of my favorite shows. We've seen it twice and are about ready to watch it again.

I finally used a 5 gallon bucket for the bulkiest parts, tupperware for smaller portions (only 3 plants of one strain & 1 surprise plant...was supposed to be White Widow....and isn't! Totally different structure of bud. interesting:clap:). Total 21 plants, so I poured out a lot into the large bucket due to humidity problems & put large silica packets in it. It worked!
The jars finally came in the other day & I've put everything in jars, numbered them & weighed them (after all were at cured %).

DONE! :D

oh, and thanks to everyone who answered!

((((HUGS))))

Menards never runs out of jars.
They do and have in my area for months.

In early August Menards online said they had 3 dozen wide mouth quarts on their shelves. I go and standing at the shelve they sell them at; I see nothing. Menards online says they are there in stock. I flag down a Menards associate, he goes in back..and returns to tell me they have not had Ball jars for weeks....

For me, this is Not the first time Menards said they had something online...but did not in the store.

ok so growers here is my dark confession...
i cure using the no burp method.
ran out of jars, needed new ones instantly. went to the store and bought the giant pickle jar. tossed the pickles, bleached the jar thoroughly, I mean clean. put a pound in and three weeks later when checked it for the first time i had ruined it. an entire pound of pickle weed because the rubber seal on the lid retained the dill aroma. i literally had a panic attack. dark confession... fastest pound i’ve ever moved. that dill weed was dank bitches! Am i the only one?
