Thanks

If you only need small quantities and you don't mind them not being crystal clear, pick some up from the deli bar at your nearest grocery store.
I buy them by the thousands from a restaurant supply wholesaler. The best ones are perfectly clear and made by "Solo" out of Urbana Illinois
They are available in Canada

I get them from Loblaws or Dominion. If you ask the deli ladies nicely, they are often willing to sell you a bunch. I think they want 10 cents a piece with lids. That's not too bad.

Where can you get "Solo" deli cups in Canada?

Thanks.

Solo has many reps, but the big Ontario one is Adelco Watford
in Scarborough. They have a 500 dollar minimum, which works out to thousands of containers. I usually don't need that many so they directed me to MIA FOOD .
The containers come in 500 lot boxes, and the lids are sold separately also in 500 lots but fit Dm8, Dm12 and Dm16's
Solo cups has a website. Since you're out west, call them up and find a local distributor
Here's their website...
You can email them, from the home page if you want

Thanks Roy, do you know if they also make the larger 6.75" and 9.75" diameter containers?

What are you using them for that would help us tell you if it's big enough.

I get mine in 2 different places either from A.R.C. a herp store in my area or from shop n save's deli.
