Oddly enough the Wal-Mart Jars are quite nice (for what they are.)

Let me qualify.  I bought one a few years ago that looked like a 
Kitchen Scale.  It is a nice jar, very colorful; soft pastels.  It was 
on the Clearance rack for .50.  What a bargain!

So again, "for what they are"; cheap!  I chipped the jar cleaning it.  
No, I did not bang it against something.. Hot water caused it to chip, 
then crack... I still have it, but it is not going to last generations 
like McCoy jars do.  But for a cheap jar that I do not have to worry 
about, its not bad.  Certainly not a collector, however if it breaks, 
who cares.
