How to re-fill spice bottle on the cheap

So being Jamaican we cook with lots of thyme and I am always running out. Well the last time I purchased thyme in the glass jar at my local Sweetbay, it was well over $4.00. I even tried the fresh thyme, but it would go bad before I got to use the whole bunch. So last month while I was in Sweetbay picking up a few items, I happened to walk by a small "spice island" and saw that they had thyme and alot of other spices/seasonings for really cheap. So I got 2 bags of thyme just to try them out, and you could never taste the difference in brands. Here are the pictures of how I re-fill my spice/seasoning containers on the cheap.

This is the empty jar of McCormick Thyme priced well over $4.00!!

This is the bag of Thyme cost $0.69

This is my jar filled half-way with the Badia Thyme. I think a bag and a half will fill it completely up.

This is the jar and the extra bag of Thyme. So for $1.38 I got a jar and a half of Thyme :-) Until next time, Be Blessed!!
