On this side of the pond, a 3 lb can is a big one, I get nervous when I am down to the last can. For use, that can gets dumped into a smaller plastic can with a handle that works much better for filling the Mr. Coffee for another 12 cups of Gods Blessing. I've been known to have 4 of the big cans on top of the fridge, buying it when its on sale at under 7 dollars a can. Wouldn't want to run out between sales now would we? > Nik -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
