I use the PVC pipe end cap things from the hardware store. Cheap, and have yet to be tipped! I had to sand down the edge a little, but that's about it

Yea monk just linked me to deli cups $31.75 for 500 comes to about $0.06 per cup. $2 a holder.
I think its worth it for the peace of mind no tipping and no cleaning water bowls no more. Cleaning 12 bowls is a pain in the butt.

Prices range anywhere from $0.25 to $2 at this place.
It was a joke. You said you bought them at the dollar store. So you paid twice as much as I would have paid for them at a dollar store.
On a side note, my baby pastel tipped the steel bowl over last night. Guess I'll try the PVC.

I use ceramic bowls with all 13 of my snakes and have never had a spilled water dish. It's worth the few extra bucks to me.

I still don't think you do, but whatever.....
Acceptable responses would be.....
- lol, how do they get away with ripping people off like that??
 - They came in two-packs.
 - Inflation, what can you do?
 - There use to be a time when everything at the dollar store only cost a dollar. Now it's more like "try and find the one item that only costs a dollar"....

Not
