Spring is here: Sun tea jars are arriving

Spring has arrived in Atlanta.  A  week ago I noted the difficulty of finding sun tea jars, and now they've shown up in our local Kroger.  Glass ones! 

We bought three.

Update from April 2003: a year later, one of the has broke, and the other two both leak from the spout. We also found and tried a plastic one. It doesn't leak - I think - and it doesn't seem to taste any different. The plastic ones do melt if you put them in the dishwasher.

Update from August 2007: I've gone over to the dark side; I've been using the plastic ones for a few years.  They no longer melt.  They also don't break, and are much lighter than the glass ones.  Plus, the glass ones are still hard to find, and the plastic ones show up with cute designs every spring.
