Snap seals for masson jars

We have a bunch of regular size masson jars, but cannot find the snap lids for them. Who knows where to find some?

if you mean the type of jars that are a bit older and the opening is bigger than the current ones and smaller than the wide mouth ones, they were out of stock everywhere. (including on Amazon) I broke down and ordered some from Jars.com. they were back ordered there but I finally got them early this month. I figure I will have them for next year. Oh yes, they are called Gem lids.

They aren't being manufactured on a commercial basis by Bernardin anymore, so you won't find them in stores from what I understand. I gave away all my gem sized jars because of that.

a while ago on this discussion board, so a search of the board will give you an answer. I recall there was an Amish colony, maybe around Plumas, that sold them.
I believe a new company has started selling them.
Could not find that thread now but this might help.

I found that one, but could not find the thread that mentioned the Plumas place to purchase them from.
Here is a link to the website where they can be purchased.
