Ain't the ones from Bottlemark just as expensive as ercol? The intl. shipping prices are insane.

This is true, but facts aside.
I'm surprised no one do printed circular stick on ones like you get on many of Grolch type bottles, more economical.
I've resorted to having 5 different coloured tops so I can tell what's in what.

Standard bottle caps are approx 22mm diameter on the top.
Something like these 19mm diameter circular labels would be good to print on at home. (ref LP117/19R)
Labelplanet via Amazon - 5 sheets x 117 labels = 585 labels = £3.48 inc del
If more wanted
Labelplanet Direct - 25 sheets= 2925 labels = £10.50 inc free shipping

Labelplanet also provide
Word templates eg
one for 19mm labels
Use a template with a Mail Merge feature in Word & you're away.
Nothing like the quality of professionally printed ones, but loads better than my current batch numbers

good spot JMC, my only concern with those is my bottles get cold and the condensation may cause the ink to run, but at 3 for a penny. meh.

I get my tops from a place in the states. great quality. I get them for 25 cents a hit plus postage providing minimum quantity is about 200.
Now i usually buy 250 of one design and 250 of a christmassy type design at once so if you want to work me a price for standard 26 mm caps that will stand being bent over the bottles and give me a price inc postage to Norway maybe there is something for me:)

I ordered some in the end from BottleMark over in the US, great service and pretty reasonable prices

If there's enough demand for circular stickers I could look into it.

Further up the thread there's discussion about circular stickers. A lot of my work is in the print industry so I have access to trade prices and was merely offering to see what kind of prices I could get for members.
