wine bottles
 

Check with your local fancy restaurant & ask them to save you the empty's.
They will be glad to get rid of them, be sure to give them a couple bottles
of your best home made for doing this. Be sure to pick them up on a
regular basis as they don't wan them laying around. I don't like the
larger bottles but take them all & toss the ones I don't like. You'll get
more bottles than you will ever need, all for free!!

where do you live? In the greater boston area, we go to the wholesale
produce market where the wine grape merchants sell 12/ $9 for fifths...the
restaurant scavenger route is great if you don't mind dealing with lable
removal issues. regards, bobdrob
