Does anyone know of a good place to buy shot glasses from located preferably in Ontario Canada at reasonable prices. If not Canada places in the US would be good to have on hand also.

I have given up on finding a decent place that sells glass online, shipping is unbelievably high, I just buy any glass local, JC penny's or wal~mart, Kohl's, you might be able to use a local business and order online and have them ship it to the store at no cost to you cause it's on there freight. hope this helps a bit :)

Restaurant supply houses will sell to businesses.

Byran, I've been picking them up at the Dollar store, or Dollar rama. I tried a restaurant supply and they were more expensive.

edit: I was just at Great Canadian Wholesale, and they have boxes of 12 for 6.49.

Hi Joe 12 for 6.49 is more expensive than the dollar stores.. I do several thousand of them a year, so I import them by the skidload, but good old dollarama has come through in a pinch several time while waiting for my shipment to arrive. I used to cruise them all and buy up everything they had in each store. once I got about 80 to 100 dozen, I would have to wait until they stocked up again..There are a lot more of them in the Barrie area then there used to be now though! Most of the restaurant supply places have a low minimum order of about a hundred bucks, but thier glass is more expensive.. I'd stick to the dollar stores.. I still buy wine glasses there when I need them..I don't do as many wine glasses, because I will not ship them, they are too bulky/expensive/and un insurable. I do them only for those that can pick them up. Hopefully the customer will supply them too..

I use all that I buy, and do not sell them unetched, but The dollarstore is only $4.00 a doz. And my price would be about the same.. I import my own not to save money, we're only talking pennies here, but to insure a dependable supply without having the depend on being able to pick up 100 dozen when I need them from a multitude of dollar stores. Dollarama usually has the 1.5 oz glass on hand for $4.00 a dozen and you can't get much cheaper than that..
