    So would that be a Siamese twin fortune cookie? We keep ours in a drawer..heh.

    Sorry for the double post, S4E posted while I was hitting post on my last one! I blame him.

    Oh! Big glass jugs. Home brewers buy these. The kind that the cheap wine comes in with the handles: growlers and carboys. I think apple cider also comes in these, although I'm not sure they haven't all switched to plastic yet.

    Beer bottles with the caps that are attached by metal things are in demand by brewers too. The Grolsch beer kinds. Those are actually pretty cool little reusable jugs. I might have to drink more of them so I can sell the bottles.

    Home-brewers want any beer bottles that have screw-on or lock-on caps.

    Wine brewers want the wine bottles with screw-on caps too.

    I keep thinking of more things. Mint tins, like the Altoid containers. Any little closable metal containers are in demand. They are getting rarer; a lot of companies are using plastic containers now. Of course, the little vintage metal snuff containers and stuff like that are sellable. One small, simple snuff box is selling on Esty right now for $1,250.00

    Even the bigger tins, like the round Danish Cookie gift ones. Metal candy containers in heart shapes from Valentine's Day, or the rectangular ones from over the holidays. The big popcorn tins. New tins sell to crafters, old ones sell to collectors.

    And Sir will like this one - metal coolers.
