Condiment and other containers - ideas? (1 Viewer)

[Vanman]

Hi. Having a petite and bijou van I opted (5 years ago) for very petite and bijou condiment bottles - see below. They mean that I don't have to carry manufacturers bottle sized ones or the satchets. I'm feeling that they are in need of an upgrade, the washing up liquid and Oil ones seems to cut it a bit close on every trip - I think we use less and less as we are running out!

So - can anyone recommend (links are good) any sets that are slightly bigger and a bit more presentable or purpose built would be nice. Thanks.

I cannot tell how big yours are now, but would these suit?

I think the contents would look more appealing in a clear bottle than the colours you have - unless that is the condiment
I tend to buy them in the smaller local co-op supermarket which sells things in the smaller sizes and look for plastic containers, often own brand.

From a bit of "google" they seem to be called "PET sauce bottles".
We have a few small ones that we have kept when empty and decant sauces into them.

250 ml PET bottle 'Squeeze', oval, plastic | 250 | Clear | Pet | 100025280

The 250ml PET bottle 'Squeeze' is suitable as a squeeze/donor bottle for honey, sauces and more. The bottle content can be used to dose specifically with the folding hinges.

Sorry, I should have given measurements. The ones that I have are 10cm high. The ones I would like would hold enough washing up liquid for a two week getaway. I think mine are already bigger than all the ones suggested so far, but I'll look again

Thank goodness you cleared up that those vivid colours are not your table condiments!

They do help me tell the salt from the sugar though ... and nothing worse than Fairy on your Fish & Chips

World of Bottles would charge x3 as much for postage as for my x6 bottles, but the lead (and right search words) led me to Ampula where I found 2x 300ml and 4x 200ml and 2 mini jam jars which should spruce up the looks and quantities - thanks again.

(and Yes Annie, they are clear )

I might get some of those from Ampula. Vinegar is one thing that you never need much of but always want to take. Currently in a tiny Almond Essence bottle !

We use the single use sachets of heinz ketchup and hellmens mayo to save having the big bottles or having to fridge the mayo.

Buy more economical sizes of ketchup and mayonnaise and with a pot each bought from your fave link option above and after one use you’ll be saving money.
Oh! You’ll need a little space in the fridge.

Have a mooch round Pound land etc, they will have travel bottles which should suit.
