We buy 'em in a 1 lb can in the Italian Market in Philly. The can comes with a plastic lid. In the fridge the oil solidifies and the anchovies last for a couple of years.
This is what I do, except I put them in a pint mason jar. The anchovies in the large cans seem much better than those sold in the small cans. They never turn mushy on me, even as long as it takes to use that amount.
