No no no no!!
This is called "open kettle canning" and it's dangerous and products will likely spoil. Read up on it starting here: http://extension.psu.edu/food/preservation/news/2014/avoid-open-kettle-canning
You'll want to get bottles that have been tested to seal in home waterbath canners like these or you can use the super small 4 oz jars with the two piece lids like this.
Also, you need to use an approved safe recipe such as this ketchup or this BBQ sauce
4 oz ball Mason jars (good for at least a quarter), each with a Boveda 58% rh pack .
I typically have a couple grams to a quarter of 5-6 different strains. This setup keeps them all super fresh for months and months. Just also keep them in a dark cabinet or something because light is also bad.
Yeah, and costco bulk whole bean stuff is great if you drink a lot of it.
I have a half gallon mason jar (well 2 of them) - Amazon
A mesh basket insert. Amazon, this one works great for me
Grind whatever coffee I have - usually like I said, the big ass bags of costco house blend or whatever. But occasionally just coffee I want to get rid of (current batch is being made with Peru Norte because I didnt care for it).
I love my pour overs and espresso and french press and whatever, but nothing beats the convininece of a good cold brew when heading out the door in the morning, especially when its still hot/warm.
No! This is not a safe canning method, "open kettle canning" should not be used! It's especially dangerous for the types of sauces you want to make! As stated in the post above from lissabeth777:

I was wrong. The labels, jars and lids were all purchased separately.

I use these. They're great!
I got these 1 gallon glass jars from Amazon for fermentation but you could totally use them for a terrarium. 4 for $30 seemed like a pretty good price to me. That is, if you think you could use 4 of them. The lids are plastic so they won't be as pretty as a glass top, though.

I use these for all sorts of things. Here they are on Amazon, but I bought mine at a Chinese super market for $3 each. They are super versatile and the big opening is perfect for all sorts of fermentation.

Drill a half inch (12-13mm) hole in the lid, put a grommet in it. Any online homebrew supplier will sell these. You may even be able to find them at a brick and mortar hardware or homebrewer shop:

and an airlock through the grommet. Same. Easy to find.

You'll be good to go. Just a few bucks. The jars may be the expensive part, but the alternative is just use a large pickle jar instead. i've done that before in a pinch. The lids are also typically acid resistant, which is perfect.
I personally prefer glass canning jars for my tea storage, preferably a dark color glass like amber glass (cheaper if you buy them in a brick and mortar store I believe) or dark violet Miron glass (a bit expensive, at least here in the US). Regular glass should be fine too if you are keeping them out of sunlight. I find that a 16 oz/500mL volume is a good size for about 4 oz/100g-ish grams of tea, depending a lot on how dense it is. Alternatively, there are also many tea vendors which sell metal tins, preferably one with a double lid to keep them relatively well sealed and to keep odors out.
Why not make a large amount of it overnight? A strainer, a fridge, and a large mason jar are all you need. It's more complex and less acidic this way.

It's totally cheating. I'm a dude and still resort to that thing every now and then.
I had a small apartment once and HATED my one measly cabinet. I was able to save TONS of room by adding this [spice rack] (http://www.amazon.com/Spice-Storage-Organizer--Organizes-spice/dp/B0002TG3GO/ref=sr_1_173?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1368650807&sr=1-173) to the inside of that one measly cabinet door. Spices roll around, fall around, take up precious space....
How easy was that?
as for what I want, I have a cooking list but I most need [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Ball%C2%AE-Dissolvable-Labels-Jarden-Brands/dp/B004NGVIIK/ref=wl_it_dp_v_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=2BZ6AUPYZ6FAW&coliid=I3DSFPNOTP1QC4) for my pickling projects!!!

These are the screw on ones
edit mine are bigger than that. Pretty sure they are pints, but you get the point.
These are the ones I used I looked around a bit and couldn't find anything cheaper but I didn't look that long
Ey! this might be a late reply and what i am about to say may have already been written but what i did to keep my cabbage good was to use Boveda 62-Percent RH 2-Way Humidity Control, 8 gram - 10 Pack to keep the humidity in check and so that mold does not grow on your delicacy. for storing i used Ball Wide Mouth Pint 16-Ounce Glass Mason Jar with Lids and Bands. hopefully this helps out and keeps your buds good to go for a long time to come! hope you have a great day!

I use these fat shorty mason jars.

They're 16oz but I find perfect for overnight oats because they're short and fat. I don't do overnight oats often because it's so easy for the calories to add up, so just be careful and don't fill it all the way, haha!
I'm not sure you could make them for a whole week though? Maybe 2-3 days and then the other 2 days. I would be fearful of them going bad but I am paranoid.

Get one of these (or something similar). 10/10 would recommend.
I bought this jar for storing sugar cubes, hold about 2/3 of a box of Domino Sugar Cubes.
Actually, /u/stygmata, I think they did die a lot, or at least got sick, before they came up with the basic safety practices we use today.
I agree with /u/Figwit_ on scraping things off the top, as is usually necessary when not using an airlock-type system. It changes the flavor and knowing what I do of mold, I can't get past the squeamishness of knowing that little strands of whatever was on top are likely still floating in the brine deeper down.
Using a fido jar has helped me not worry about mold or keeping everything under brine. Have not had an issue yet!
I think someone may have already posted these, dagnabbot.
But on a more helpful note, here's an article you may find useful!
I haven't actually used them yet but I got these labels for mason jars https://www.amazon.com/Ball-Dissolvable-Labels-Jarden-Brands/dp/B004NGVIIK/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1484072490&sr=8-2&keywords=mason+jar+labels
That’s the part that’s puzzling to me since I’ve literally only had the bag open for maybe 3 or 4 days? I get it if it’s been weeks, but days seems excessively fast. I usually go through a whole bag within a couple weeks too, especially these smaller 250g Coava bags.
If I started using a jar, I have some jars similar to these already I could try just dropping the bag inside for extra protection? Or should I look into something more coffee specific?
I'm not positive, but I am pretty sure its these.
Yes they’re the wide mouth kind: https://www.amazon.com/Ball-Collection-Elite-Wide-Mount/dp/B000YGE0ZG
If you are willing spend a few bucks get a jar wrench:

Got this as part of a canning set, no jar can resist it's torque.
I basically copied this thread.

Traditional Glass Fermenting Jar, 4000ml / 1 Gallon with Airlock Lid https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FRBTU7K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_26OPustFSTeut
Looks like one of these, to me.
3.i have a few containers like this for whole wheat, bread, and ap flour the ones i have hold just shy of 2 5lb bags
A glass jar like this (I use this and don't smell anything)
http://www.amazon.com/Bormioli-Rocco-Round-Clear-16-9-Ounce/dp/B0001BMYG6/ref=sr_1_3?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1404582417&sr=1-3&keywords=airtight+jar
Or go in your kitchen and grab a tupperware container and a lid that fits. That's what my mom uses, and same thing, can't smell it anywhere.
Not bad. Yesterday on Amazon (I have Prime) I got these 12x500ml for $9.87... for some reason they're selling for $21.97 today so I'd definitely go with your choice if I didn't get them cheap.
But to be honest, 500ml is too big for 1 - 3.5g of weed per jar. Ah well.
I bought these from Amazon, they have shaker tops but you could always take them off if you need to measure out, or just not put the shaker tops on. I also ordered some preprinted labels -- they have LOTS of spice names so I haven't had to hand-write a single one. This keeps everything looking really uniform, so it's made me very happy.
My husband uses this ,never smell a thing.
I really like the Bormioli Rocco Fido jars. I buy a pound of beans at a time and put it in two of the 0.9 quart jars, so half of the beans stay sealed until I finish the first half. They're small enough for an Aeropress scoop to reach the bottom.
Ideally, you use it in a jar with your weed...not a baggy.
In your case, I'd simply open up the baggies all the way and throw a pack per 2oz or so into the tight-vac container. Alternatively, throw a pack in each baggy and close it if there is more than 1oz per baggy in the container since that would, in my experience, require multiple packs - but this really all depends on the condition of your flower and how long you want these packs to last before replacing them.
I'd suggest you read their own FAQ and website as well as google a little bit to figure out what you might be best suited to do...also it wouldn't hurt for you to invest in some real storage for your weed (hermetically sealed jars - I use these rather than some baggies inside a "tight-vac" plastic container.
Just my 2 cents, though...those things make me laugh, and gag, all at the same time; and are little more than a marketing ploy in my opinion.
I'd recommend this (I think that's the size, but I'm not sure) for an overall mix of price, utility and form. It holds most of a 12oz bag of beans and keeps it without a noticeable drop in flavor for 10ish days.
The marginal reduction in air exposure from an Airscape compared to a traditional airtight container isn't necessary in my opinion, but I frequently enjoy McCafe beans so what do I know?
I've used these bottles for canning bloody Mary mix! I got them at The Container Store, though.

Just gonna agree with meal planning and freezing food. Having casseroles in the freezer is SO helpful when I'm feeling lazy/busy.
My added tip - I LOVE using dissolvable labels (like this: http://www.amazon.com/Ball-Dissolvable-Labels-Jarden-Brands/dp/B004NGVIIK). I find dry erase markers can rub off or leave marks over time, but these you can write on with a normal pen or sharpie and stick it on almost any kind of container. (Then they wash off and don't leave a sticky residue!) The next step is just getting in the habit of labeling! :)
I used these [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HGJKY9S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1] and oiled them thoroughly (poured to the fill line full of oil then dumped into the next on and repeated) and it still got stuck.
Something like these?
I use these 16oz mason jars. Hold just over 250g. Wide mouth and shallow. Making it easier to stir when/if the juices settle to the bottom.

Fido Jars are just the flip-top jars that close with a little lever style clasp. They have a round rubber seal that sits between the lid and jar.

I don't like keeping my beans in the resealable bags they came in only because I sometimes forget to seal the bag after using it or I'm in a rush and don't seal it properly. I purchased these airtight canning jars from Target and they seem to be doing the job. I usually buy freshly roasted beans and go through a 12 oz bag within two weeks, so it probably doesn't make much of a difference keeping the beans in an airtight container, but at least I have the peace of mind of knowing I'm not inadvertently letting any air leak out like I would if I had kept them in the bag they came in.
