    Been adding to our sugar supplies lately with the help of some great prices and some handy coupons. In the past month I've added 20 lbs. to what we had before, and as long as these deals hold out I'll keep on taking advantage of them.

      Thanks
      We don't put them in our buckets of sugar.

        Good to know. My wife and I need to start stocking out larder with salt and sugar so this is muy valuable info. Thanks!
        "One cannot but ponder the question: what if the Arabs had been Christians? To me it seems certain that the fatalistic teachings of Mohammed and the utter degradation of women is the outstanding cause for the arrested development of the Arab. He is exactly what he was around the year 700, while we have kept on developing. Here, I think, is a text for some eloquent sermon on the virtues of Christianity." - General George S. Patton, diary, June 9, 1943.

          I think it would be a waste of o2 absorbers.

            an associate of mine just reported she put up 180 jars of fruit. some quarts, some pints, a few half pints this year.
            I asked "how much sugar did you use? she reported using about 40 pounds of sugar.

            guys, if canning fruit, preserving fruit, "putting up pickles" or anything similar is in your future, especially your paw future, 100 pounds of sugar ain't gonna be enough. this was a shock to me. the amount used in preserving the production!!
