OK....now that I have all the buckets I need (well, for now anyway ), I can tell my "secret". Free buckets at Walmart. 5 gallon and 2.5 gallon (I think). This is only at Super Walmarts. Go to the bakery, and, nicely, ask them for any empty glaze buckets they have. They get baking glaze in these buckets and will give the empties to you if you ask nicely. They give them to you with the covers too. The 5 gallon buckets are perfect for the Grit Guard, it stays on the bottom. You'll have to clean the remaining glaze from the buckets even if they "clean" them first before giving it to you.
Wow, thats pretty cool. I wonder how many other places have them. My soy sauce bucket is starting to die
that is nice.. i got my first buckets at my work ( nursing home) which were mayonaise buckets.. it had to be washed thoroughly,..but it was very useful. too bad the grit guards never fit them..
Dunkin Donuts Does or used to do the same thing. There frozen dough came in buckets. You could get as many as you wanted w/covers...
