They'll work just fine.

if you can find a pic it would help. 100% airtight is not necessary, but you would want to aim for something that is at least close, at least i would think so.

Where may I be able to find these? Any large chains that carry this?

If you are going to cure them for a long time i would go for the 100% air tight ones. It's exactly like with coffee. If you want to save the bouqet you want to... well save it ;O).
I get mine at a second hand flea market. I wash them up very well so they'll be like new - about $1-2 each. Second hand glass is almost as good as the new stuff ;O))

Get proper mason jars with the metal clips rather than the cheaper screw top. I can get them all over round here but they are a little pricey - I paid €42 for the jars to store my 44 ounces this year - but once it has all been smoked/sold I will still have the jars.

All my stuff is in jars which formerly contained everything from pepperocinnis to strawberry jam. It's amusing to see a sauerkraut jar full of dope on the bookshelf

I prefer glass easier to make what I call "jar hash"

as stated in a following post there are many many jar hash techniques but I personally take a exacto knife gently dip the tip in grain alchohol (not rubbing alchohol! like a strong vodka) occasionally to help me loosen up those sticky sticky hard to scrape trichomes and it comes off quite easily.
Ceramic jars are pretty porus - have you ever noticed that after a while the sugar gets all hard & lumpy when stored in one of these?
Its absorbing water from the atmosphere "through" the jar.

Any glass container with a lid that has a rubber seal . The rubber seal is what counts so it's airtight . As it should be airtight who wants their bud losing moisture unless u cure that way i guess then switch to air tight.
