My tops rarely close completely, and no one ever says (...) (17 years ago, 30-May-07, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Not sure if it's changed recently, but at our brand retail store in Portland Oregon, the manager won't let you out of the store if your PAB cup lid touches the rim of the cup, let alone snaps shut!

(...) The one time I've bought from PAB, I did manage to get both cups (one of each size) shut to where the lids would stay snapped in place, even after going so far as to stack a small pile in the center to fill the stud. They taped both of them (...) (17 years ago, 30-May-07, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Janey, you live too close the the only store I know of that does frown on PAB stacking: (URL) They post a no-stacking policy above their PAB tree: (URL) At least it was there when I last visited the store 3 years ago: (URL) For Brand Retail (...)

I was told that for those of us who are "good at packing the cups" will make out like bandits with the new tubs. The new tubs are available at the (...)
