What do you all keep your vegetable/olive oil in?
ISO bottles that are easy to use every day in the kitchen and do not leek
ETA I'd appreciate links

I keep it in the original bottle but instead of tearing off the whole foil cap, I puncture a tiny hole to be able to pour. I keep a 5x7 aluminum pan in my cabinet to house the bottle in case some drips down the bottle

Glass bottles with screw tops. Like the SanJ brand tamari (soy sauce) bottle. We cleaned it out and use for olive oil.

I buy one smaller size (33.8 oz) oil bottle and refill with the big jugs as needed using a funnel/wash and dry as needed.
I tried glass bottles, spouts that you add to the top, the works.
This is neatest for me.
Same with canola. I buy one 48 oz.

Make two holes on opposite sides so the oil flows more smoothly. I do this. I also save small screw-cap glass bottles from maple syrup, grape juice, soy sauce, salad dressing and the like and decant from the big bottle into those. Much easier to control the flow from a small bottle. And you expose the remaining oil to less air so it stays fresher.

The spouts I bought all drip, that's why I just refill an actual olive oil bottle. And a simple funnel. Do you need a link?

But they sell adorable minis. I use those too. And I refill as needed.
The 33 oz I keep under the sink for cooking. The minis next to the salt and spices for salad or scrambled eggs. So convenient and never drips. Very clean.

While you're at it, a spray bottle too. https://a.co/d/jiq4X9P
