I gave up on having a matched set of drinking glasses years ago... we have used medium sized pickle jars, along with a few odd sized jars, for years. My DH's hands are big, so he uses quart sized jars - a thirsty tea drinker. I have one nice set that has been in the hutch for years, never used. They will probably end up going to one of our girls, or one of their girls.
Also, I keep a couple of lids handy, for when we have leftover spaghetti sauce or homemade salad dressing. We make pizza with left over sauce, using whole wheat pita bread.
