I use the BIG Folgers red plastic tubs. Good solid plastic, with a built-in handle. Each of the big un's holds right at $50 and the next size down holds about $33. So it's easy to do the math to approximate how much I have. And they stack well too. We buy them at Sam's Club so they always have the biggest sizes. Oh, and I have the advantage of working at a church where at least 2 pots of this stuff are brewed every day, and something like 5 pots on Sunday. So I can bring these home pretty often.
I like these also. They stopped making the 33 oz with the reach thru handles which were great. Now they have the fingertip grip handles, which are ok on the 33 oz size but a little tougher if you have the big size pictured. Any suggestions for getting rid of the coffee smell? I like that smell with coffee but not when I'm drinking my beer and sorting pennies!
