I have stopped using elmers "bottles" long ago. I purchased 10 - $1 glue
bottles from the art catalog and purchased a couple gallons (cheap this way)
of elmers glue and I am set for the year(s). This is my second year at the
high scchool and I don't need to buy more bottles yet. When I joined the
staff at the middle school I ordered the long nozzeled bottles for the art
room (.89ea at that time). When I left there 2 years later -the bottles were
still in tac. I do however "educate" the students in how to "unclog" them
EASILY with the paper clip. I do specify-that any student who cuts my
bottles will "BUY" it. So far -so good. Now Ifill the bottles once a
quarter. I no longer get frustrated with the cheweed up tops.
