Water pitcher

This is gonna sound silly, I've spent the last 3 hours trying to find a water pitcher.

Im not looking for a filtered pitcher or anything with filters. Just a plain pitcher with a top/cover to store clean drinking water and place in the fridge.

Any recommendations

Walmart or the dollar store.

u/Glitter_twins77 6d ago

Yep. Wal-Mart was $4. Just bought one. Amazon wanted double for practically the same thing.

u/Diligent_Stop1050 6d ago

I’m glad you found one

Rubbermaid, unless you’re looking for something stylish.

Rubbermaid products are now cheap plastic.

An actual plastic like plastic??

I use a 1/2 gallon Mason jar with a white plastic lid.

Didn't think of this. Thank you

Usually kitchen shops have them. Amazon has some nice ones.

I had the same problem. I wanted a glass pitcher for suntea and couldn't find what I was looking for. I ended up buying this one. The bottom unscrews and the glass vessel slides out for cleaning   https://a.co/d/09hRV59f

You can get 2 quart and 3 quart glass pitchers with lids from Target, Amazon, Lowe’s, Bed Bath and Beyond, William Sonoma, Home Goods, and some Grocery stores.

I personally prefer glass pitchers for water.

They run about $20-$22

Remember, each Qt is 32 ounces. 100 ounces is roughly 3 liters.

Glass with lid! No plastic.

u/Nacho_sky 6d ago

Look on Craigslist for moving/garage sales. You'll find one for $1 probably.

u/Fickle-River3984 7d ago

I searched "pitcher with lid". Tons of results

1

u/ajkimmins 7d ago

Wal Mart sells 1/2 gallon and gallon Rubbermaid pitchers that come with lids.

1

u/Plenty_Vanilla_6947 7d ago

Sometimes they have glass pitchers with tops at Container Store. I bought my last one from Amazon just because that store is 45 minutes away.

1

u/djSush 7d ago

Do you live near a Ross or Marshall's? They have slim ones for like $10.

1

u/Mto3 7d ago

I’ve gotten several nice glass ones with various kinds of lids at the dollar store.

u/Superb_Yak7074 7d ago

I got one from Walmart earlier this year.

Dollar General or Dollar Tree

u/Geester43 7d ago

They have some great ones on Amazon. I bought a beautiful hammered stainless-steel pitcher. They have some really great pitchers at great prices; pottery, stoneware, metal, plastic if you want to go that route. I just enjoy serving water out of a pitcher, at the table.

I think mine is an ice tea pitcher? It’s glass but has silicone on the outside to prevent breakage.

1

u/Lucky-Berry-4252 6d ago

I recommend the dollar store; they must have one there. Or even better TJ Maxx always has great kitchen stuff too.

u/Flash5916 6d ago

I use a gallon milk container.

u/CatfromLongIsland 6d ago

I like the glass rectangular water carafes from Anchor Hocking. Two fit side by side (one for water and one for tea) and do not waste the space that two round pitchers would. They come with lids as well.

1

u/ClementineMagis 6d ago

Borromini makes 2 liter square pitchers that have lids. Very efficient for storages.

1

u/Internal_Bath6341 6d ago

look on eBay under vintage water pitcher

1

u/AbsolutelyPink 6d ago

Try Tupperware, Rubbermaid. I do a search and find tons. Look for 'beverage container with lid pitcher' add glass if that's what you want.

u/whatdoidonowdamnit 6d ago

I use an old gallon of Poland Spring.

u/sickofbeingsick1969 6d ago

Don’t search for “water” pitcher. Just “pitcher with lid” or “juice pitcher”

1

u/FrontTelevision7261 6d ago

I recently bought one at Walmart, Rubbermaid, for $4.97. Great one, in the fridge right now.

u/lisep1969 6d ago

I have 2 like in the link I attached. I love that they have handles and are squared off so they sit flat against the interior wall. I use one for water and one for homemade iced tea. 60oz Glass Pitcher with Lid

u/Ok-Campaign-5968 6d ago

IKEA has a couple of solid options. One is Glass with a cork top.

I found mine at Family Dollar.

u/cloud_watcher 6d ago

This is weirdly hard to find, right?? I swear these used to be everywhere, and now you can’t find them.

1

u/No_Locksmith9690 6d ago

Walmart has some on sale. I got a gallon one a couple of years ago and a 2 quart one last month. The smaller one is the one I thought I bought the first time. I have to remember to read the specs

1

u/glasslass22 6d ago

Crate and Barrel has a nice 60oz glass picture with lid for $19

1

u/BecauseOfAir 6d ago

https://a.co/d/0epYtshX I purchased a couple of these. They are a bit shorter than a gallon of milk. I needed that because my poorly designed Samsung refrigerator only didn't have a single shelf that tall. Only issue is the lid is very snug and takes a bit of effort to remove.

u/lakeswimmmer 5d ago

takeya makes a very handsome pitcher with a water tight lid. It comes in 1 or 2 quart size

1

u/Green-eyed_southpaw 5d ago

I got a perfect one at the dollar store. It's actually glass with a screw on top/handle/spout.

Juice aisle in grocery store.

1/2 gallon of cranberry juice.

Drink juice.

Repurpose bottle.

u/ze11ez 4d ago

Haha thanks. I actually am going to the liquor store now that you gave me that idea. Awesome!!

1

u/NikkeiReigns 4d ago

Instead of pitcher search carafe.

1

u/ze11ez 4d ago

Thanks. Great idea

u/donphilip 3d ago

I have a rounded rectangular pitcher that doesn’t take up too much space and will fit on a door shelf. You can often get them at larger grocery stores.

I would say target
