Yes!!! I recently stopped throwing away the jars from spaghetti sauce & the jars from my jams! They can definitely be reused & honestly, buying new ones are so expensive. If I have a tin can, like from a collared green or baked beans, I save one under the sink for grease so I can throw the whole thing out !
