Inexpensive S.S.Air-tight tea tins
I’ve been looking for air tight tea tins for 50g,100 g, 25g & 500 g but don’t want to break the bank b/c I need around 25. Also, I love all things tea ware and am always on the look out for a special porcelain container for my jade oolong. So I’ve you have any ideas, definitely let me know. suggestions?
I’ve found the best tins were actually the old style Teavana logo tins. I am not sure if they are stainless steel though. Simpson and Vail also has good tins for little money.
Have you seen these:

They dont have all the sizes you mentioned but I have always been happy with them and they are very cost effective.
World Market has some inexpensive tea tins. http://www.worldmarket.com/search.do?query=tea+canister
A set of 4 is less than $10.
The World Market ones are nice, they’re a double lid style like the TeaVivre ones, and easy to pick up if you live near one. If you sign up for their rewards program, they send out coupons like $10 off $30.
I also like the Adagio 4oz ones, they come in cute colors. https://www.adagio.com/teaware/tins.html
Those ones are really great. Actually, these wouldn’t make a bad Christmas present for someone, would they! :)
Annie’s Tea Time has 50g tins: http://www.anniesteatime.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=ATT&Category_Code=AC-TT&Product_Code=&Search=&Per_Page=20&Sort_By=price_asc
This place has just about everything:

That’s where I ordered mine, but most of the tins they offer aren’t air tight. Plus, shipping is really high.
Teavana has a sale on tea tins going on right now. $1.50 for 8 oz tins w/ free shipping:

Dunno how air tight they are, they seem pretty solid, but Harney & Sons has pretty reasonably priced tins in 4 oz, 8 oz & 3 pound sizes
