Not as cheap as the beetroot option, but works out at about 40 p a jar. I'm sure you can buy them cheaper elsewhere if you do a google search.

I was quite annoyed with lakeland that you have to buy the lids separately.

I've done some homework when it comes to jars and if anyone can find a reliable supply cheaper than 20p each please let me know because I feel like I've looked everywhere.

My OH says.... "loads of jam tarts!!" but he loves them so he's biased

I used to make jam rock bisbuits when I was little.... they are like jam tarts but the jam is sealed inside... yummy yummy

You can certainaly make rock buns only without the dried fruit make a well with your thumb in the middle and add a teaspoon of jam. Rather nice.

Mind you I think you'd have to make a lot of buns.

Doughnuts?
Queen of Puddings?
Sponge cake with Jam filling?
Add some to a crumble/pie to sweeten it rather than sugar (with the fruit - not in the crumble!)
Heated and poured over Ice Cream.
Sponge pudding with Jam in the base?

Well that should keep you amused!:D I am now devoid of adjectives!

I know it's a bit late for you now, but you could ask on freecycle for jars.

Nooooooooooooooooo, don't throw it away! Get it in the freezer and decide later! You could mix it with an equal amount of fruit for pies or crumble.
Or, make jam wine, I have a great recipe I have made lots of times, pm me if you want it.
