It's easier to remove before you add the stamens.

Did you forget to tell the children and grandchildren you
want the lids?
However, it sounds like the only kind still available in
your area is the kind where the lid is a flat piece of
plastic glued in place, used for mass packaging of
small amounts of condiments. That kind may be hard
to reuse.
In this area, a small percentage are of a different kind -
basically a miniature of the plastic cups with reusable
lids often used for carryout food. Most of those I've
seen were from one Chinese-Vietnamese restaurant,
and used for that restaurant's versions of dipping
sauces. A restaurant supply store is likely to have them,
if you can't find a restaurant with enough spares to sell
you some.
