Happy to help! Pickling is one of those cooking things that I love because it's so simple. You put stuff in a jar, and then forget about it for a while. I can handle that.
I usually just get these: http://www.amazon.com/Ball-Mason-Jars-Wide-Mouth-Freeze/dp/B001DIZ1NO
they're available all over the place, really nice and well made, work for canning and dry goods storage, and they come in every size known to man.
Make sure that you throw a label with the date you started the pickling on it, or be a heathen like me and just write on the jar and then scribble it out when you put something new in. Its pretty handy to know how long stuff has been in there.
"can and freeze jars" look like this.
I've done endless batches of chili in them, but don't think it's tempered glass or anything. They do not go from freezer to microwave. It's best to let them thaw out in the fridge the night or two before and move to a lunch container to reheat later that day. I like borosilicate glass food storage containers with the plastic snap lid
Also, because you're not pressure canning, I would buy these plastic lids and reuse them over and over.
(non-payola amazon link because of photo and server uptime, buy them where you want.)

Use a glass or metal container with a tight fitting lid.
Why wouldn't you just buy them on Amazon?
