i'm going to use it to hold art prints, so they can be stored flat under my bed with some protection. my largest print is 40" x 34", so it would probably have to be at least a 65" tv box.
call any bicycle shop for their bicycle frame boxes, much bigger than what you need and they are happy to give them away.

was hoping there's a supermarket or something across town...the dairy farm itself isnt exactly along my way to anything and seems foolish to just drive there just for a jug of milk

Is it also glass?

Nope it’s a regular plastic jug so no $1.25 deposit like those glass jars

Spud has it but I don’t order anything from them

They have a retail store there BUT covid and stuff, you have to call them and check, you used to be able to go in and out.

I used this site https://www.smartbuyglasses.ca/ before and it appears they have a wholesale agreement with Luxxotica which explains the pricing.

looking for some plastic sheeting. using it for craft projects as stiff backing.
think something like those thin plastic cutting boards, or a thin clear binder cover.
what could maybe substitute for something like that?

Are corrugated plastic sheets too flimsy? Readily available at HD in 4x8' sheets

I get mine from Grimco. They come in all kinds of thickness, strength, UV resistance, colours, etc. Grimco is a graphics supply business, so they have all kinds of substrates that are used for signs. That's if you need more than just one sheet.

i've thought about it too but they would bend more easily in a certain orientation and i dont want it to bend along a line..
also i want it to be flexible in all directions.
