Need some advice on long term aging!

I got my mason jars at Smart and Final and I think they were about 12 bucks a case. I have yet to find a way to seal them air tight with out using heat. I read a story by Pease that talked about how his friend had aged a tin of Odyssey in a Mason jar that he boiled out first and loaded with baccy while it was still hot. The hot mason jar essentially baked the tobacco again leaving it nothing like the same blend that had been aged for the same amount of time. Good luck with this and I wait with bated breath like you to find the answer.
