+murfster Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 I bought some at Canadian Tire today.. not on the shelf with the other "Tupper"ware but in a bin. I've never had a problem finding them but from the way this topic keeps poping up.. how about Murfster's mail order?? Murfster Quote Link to comment
+DocMagoo Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 Zellers sometimes has a 2 for 1 sale...they also have them in a package.... Home Hardware has them as well. Quote Link to comment
+Gorak Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 A couple of months ago I bought this set of Lock & Locks from the The Shopping Channel website for $39.95. Great deal and all of them were suitable sizes for caches. If you go to their website and search on "Lock & Lock" you'll find some other sets as well. Quote Link to comment
+_canadianbacon_ Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Costco still has the 18 piece set (9 containers + Lids). There is no longer the $5 coupon, but still not a bad deal at $19. (I'm going by memory on price, if its not $19, please correct me). Saw them at Burnaby Store last week, and Langley store a month ago. Quote Link to comment

Spongebob_Cachepants Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 In a jam, (should you ever feel the desire to hide a cache at that exact moment), Walmart has some reasonably priced. Quote Link to comment
+Tidalflame Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Rona, Wal-Mart, Costco But preferably not Wal-Mart. They have 'em, but... it's Wal-Mart. Quote Link to comment
+Circle of Confusion Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 I see Zellers latest flier has Lock and Locks on sale. (Sept 2 - Sept 9) Buy one get one free. All Lock and Lock containers. Quote Link to comment
pleinjeu Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I see Zellers latest flier has Lock and Locks on sale. (Sept 2 - Sept 9) Buy one get one free. All Lock and Lock containers. I just bought some at Zellers, but their system is not showing the discount, and so I had to "remind" the cashier. Buyers beware! Quote Link to comment
riddlemethis Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 If anyone sees a local sale advertised again, can you please post it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
+Buzzle Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 You can always sneak into your local thrift store and get old Thermos screwtop containers for a buck or two at the most Quote Link to comment
+buttonmania Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 i was in a dollar store the other day and saw lots of them Quote Link to comment
+AV Dezign Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 (edited) i was in a dollar store the other day and saw lots of them I saw some in the dollar store too, but they are not very good, just squeze them to find out, you can hear the air seaping in and out of the container, not very air tight if you ask me. PS, that's my tech to find out if a container is safe for geocaching, just give them a squeze! Edited November 5, 2005 by AV Dezign Quote Link to comment
+dogbreathcanada Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 i was in a dollar store the other day and saw lots of them I doubt they were actual Lock & Locks. Quote Link to comment
+Gorak Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 i was in a dollar store the other day and saw lots of them Avoid cheaping out on the fake Lock & Locks at the dollar store. It's false economy because you will end up having to replace it within a few weeks or possibly months. Different type of plastic and inferior seals. DAMHIKT Zellers and Walmart both have limited selections. The best selection I've found has been at Home Hardware. Quote Link to comment
