disposable cups and lids

by Leah S » Fri Feb 12, 2010 11:10 pm

clear plastic, 9 oz cups with either flat lids or domed lids.

Where can I find them? I've looked at Sam's and Horner's. Forgot to look at GFS, though. Any other ideas?

Dine is practically in my neighborhood. Should have thought of that one.

But I need them this weekend and Dine isn't open on weekends. :(

And I let my Costco membership expire.

Creation Gardens carries the Ecosteward line of compostable products. They have a clear cup that looks like plastic but is made with cornstarch. Pretty neat stuff. If you call them ask for Micheal Drane.

I was once told that if you let the compostable stuff lay around too long, they can draw bugs because of the cornstarch. Just hearsay, and an FYI. No proof though.

I've seen some nice "carryout" worthy cups and lids of various types/sizes at ALDI before. I don't know if they're a regular product, but it may be worth checking out.

I am pretty sure that the Liquor Barn will carry 9 oz cups, not sure about the lids.
Is that a raw fish in your pocket or are you just glad sashimi?

Leah, if you still need 'em, I have a bunch of 9 oz. plastic souffle cups - Solo. I don't have much use for them. Lids, I don't have, and being paper goods, you will have to find the right lid to fit them (every company varies their specs by a millimeter or so, it seems), If you are interested, PM me or e-mail me.
