ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

GLASS BOTTLES•JARS - Where to find Glass Bottles & Jars in Costa Rica - Brown•Amber Medicinal Bottles, Mason Jars+


Finding glass BOTTLES and JARS in Costa Rica is NOT easy and is NOT cheap.  And FORGET finding Mason Jar LIDS!! 

So far the only place I've found that carries glass bottles and jars in quantity is:

NEGOCIOS TROPICALES 
Negocios Tropicales seems to be IT if you're seeking more quanitity at a better price!!  They say they're the only company in Costa Rica with the complete distribution of Glass products for Restaurants, Bars and Sodas+.  They have everything from jars for Preserves (Mason Jars - at least 3 different sizes), restaurant grade Stemware (hence sturdier), brown • amber Medicinal Bottles, LOTS of different shape bottles, Vases+++
NOTE:  I looked at their site on July 2013 and did not see Mason Jars so I'll check with them
