I gotta say most my stuff ends up in Folgers coffee cans.
And no I don’t want to hear from you coffee snobs about how much you hate Folgers....
And by the way, Busch Light is my beer of choice for all you craft beer guys. :cool:

I like Folgers coffee. It's what we drink on the deer lease.
My wife buys fru-fru coffee. It's a small price to pay to make her happy.
Miller Lite for everyday beer at home.
Guiness on tap, for celebrations, when we're out.

Dunno if I dislike Folgers coffee, have never bought any. There is a story behind that . . .

Way back when I was about 11-12 years old an advertising campaign started that was constant, continuous, relentless. Radio, TV, Newspaper, magazines, billboards. All these ads ever said was that they were bringing a mountain to Chicago (I grew up 50 miles NW of the city). An old time sea captain and he's bringing a mountain to Chicago. No-one had a clue what it was about, just relentless 24/7 ads everywhere. This went on for the better part of a year. Finally it turns out that it's Folgers Mountain grown coffee.

Blitz advertising like that drives me insane and to this day I have never bought a single can of Folgers. Likewise Mr. Wimple can keep his Charmin TP and squeeze to his hearts content. Ole Mike can keep his damn pillows all to himself.

During the Covid shortage, purchased our first Charmin.....the only stuff available. Back to the cheap stuff now, its not like I'm going to keep it after its used.

Folgers here too, both in the cup and for storage. Haven't had a beer or anything stronger than Mountain Dew for 40 years. Been 3 years since the last of the soda pop.

I currently have two office coffee messes supplying me with Forgers cans. They are quickly becoming the dominant storage unit in my menagerie of containers.

Like beer. Spent the last 2 1/2 years of high school in Wisconsin, so Miller. Dont drink coffee. I've been told it's an acquired taste. My response has always been "Why do I want to acquire a taste for something that taste like ****." So I use these nut containers and Del Monte uses the same size container with there Citrus Salad that I also like so these are around. Rather conveniently they hold the contents of a Lee pot.

We drink folgers, I can't---don't drink beer anymore<< sober almost 8 years.
I am using those tin cans ya get cookies & candy in---the wife gets them at yard sales for free Or 25cent each, but most are round & I don't like how they don't store very well,take up to much space, But my friend<<the dog get's milkbone treat's in a clear plastic square box I like better so slowly doin a change over.

Who knew?? Apparently my one sister in law feeds Ground squirrels, Chippies and Grey n Ted Squirrels PEANUTS!! She buys the cheapest she can find usually Cost co or BJs one of those huge places. I asked all my SiL to save me plastic Mayonnaise and Peanutbutter jars. First week I got a garbage bag full of the peanuts jars. They are taller, hold a bit more. But do not stack as well. About a month later I get another full grocery bag!!
SO, Im good on plastic bullet bottles for some time!! ;)

I store bird and buckshot in the 2 liter soda bottles. Makes filling the loader a bunch easier.

I got all the Folgers/Maxwell House cans I could from a business I do repairs on. They now do the Keurig thing. Those little cups don't hold squat and ain't got no lid.
