My leftovers are not normally canned. My wife never cans her worlds-greatest Chicken Matzo Ball Soup (though perhaps she should).

+1. Cheap and good. Available at King Soopers, Safeway and Albertsons here. They work as well and are a lot cheaper than anything else mentioned. Come in at least two sizes and you can buy 30 for the price of a Sigg. If I leave a dirty one on my bag for a week and it gets too gnarly I just toss it out with no regret. I've got yogurt and fruit in one today, a bunch of BBQ sauce from Brothers in another today. BBQ sauce was upside down when I got to work - no leaks at all.
