Does anyone know where to get un-punched 12oz deli-cups? I've been using these as disposable water bowls for years, and I have some non-tip dog bowls which they fit perfectly inside of. All of a sudden, no one sells them any more... tried Superior & TSK Supply.... any other ideas?

United grocers/Cash and Carry;restaurant supply store.

Alternatively, the punched cups are only punched at the top and will still hold a good amount of water....

Are you sure tsk doesn't have any? Just picked a boxes of both 12 & 16oz unpunched cups this past weekend. I know Dan strives to make sure he has plenty of stock for his customers.

Yeah, sorry I should have specified that I was looking for 12oz, unpunched WHITE cups... I ended up getting the 12oz clear ones from TSK.

Superior has them right here.....

Try local grcery wholesalers

sorry Grocery wholesalers

I use the same twin-Pak 12oz cups. When I asked Superior about them he said he could special order them but the price doubled for some reason.

What happened to the 12oz white cups is there is only really one company making them and they have a pallet minimum. Which means we have to store well over $1000.00 worth of inventory. That is not a bad thing when it is a highly used product but in the last 16 months only two people have requested a couple boxes. The clear cups are actually a better cup for the water too.

As for pricing plastic has gone through the roof. By March it will have gone up 40% in cost since I started TSK Supply. They seem to be raising it 8% every quarter. So that is why you see price increases. We have tried to keep our cost to a minimum as much as possible and absorb this cost but we too will have to raise prices to stay in business. We have been hoping to see it go down but we just received the March increase letter this past week.

We appreciate you buying supplies from us since we are in the same industry as you.

Hi Marcial,

We have them at ARS. Just give us a call to order.

Thanks,
