Ok well first - Wally's where I live has a useless selection of glass. Seriously, if yours does too, look to a hardware store - you'll be surprised. I looked in quite a few places really, and ultimately settled with Hobby Lobby.
The little ones in front are what I tried first, not realizing that 2oz of tobacco really doesn't fit in a 2oz jar. But - they are the perfect size for Plugs so...
As I said, the larger glass I got at Hobby Lobby. They have a HUGE selection of glass. I picked these because the lids fit those little pipe tobacco humidifiers well. That and I thought they looked pretty good. Easy to take the lids off too. But again - they have quite the selection and they keep stock - so that's good.
The other reason I picked them is because they have smooth outside surfaces unlike "canning glass." Now I know I am a marketing whore and love the labels so... I wanted flat so that I could tape the labels on.
It's simple to do with the cans that come like cat food. The labels peel off, and you simply take packing tape and put it on. The round tins with the label glued on top doesn't work - so I simply take a screenshot of it from the vendor - throw it onto Word, size it, and print.
I note now that it's best to place them on the top of the glass as it gives the illusion of fullness
. That and it's easier to see for me. That is helpful as the glass I got will easily fit 4oz comfortably

Like I said lol - I am a packaging whore.
