are bottles the same as jars? and what are clips and what kind of lids?

 

like this? http://www.masonjars.biz/

 

I know in England canning is referred to as "Jarring" so I am excited to learn more about what your part of the world and what things are called.

 

oh and what is an 'op store'?

 

inquiring minds want to know...

Ok - bottles = jars

I think Australia usually call it preserving, but my Mum always did bottling, in NZ.

 

The clips are new to me, must be an Australian thing, The address below shows them,

 

clips

 

And the local Op shop is the opportunity store or shop. 2nd hand shop, run by volunteers as a fundraiser for a charity, anything and everything can at times be found there. This one is run by the Catholic ladies and raises funds for St Vincent de Paul, usually known as St Vinnies.

ah so the clips are what hold the lids in place... here we use rings.

 

I notice you have different size clips... while we have standard mouth and wide mouth jars.
