+scottpa100 Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 Just got back from the weekly dirge of shopping (stops me from caching!) and I noticed that clip-it plastic storage boxes are on offer. Buy one, get one free. Across the range, not just the small ones either! I hope that a load of cache creation will now take place! Quote

+scottpa100 Posted January 13, 2007 Author Posted January 13, 2007 Any examples of sizes and cost? er, I didn't buy any (its not pay day until Monday!) as I need to buy about 10 for a series I'm planning. However I recall that there was 450ml size box, which was the half way one, so I can assume a 1 litre-ish box and there was 280ml ish box too. One of them was priced at 99p, but I can't remember whether that was the 450ml or the 280ml. I've looked on Morrison's website and they are not listed there. Anyone else know? Otherwise it sounds like you may have to go to the shops! Quote

+molfrew-mosstoad Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 (edited) We saw these ourselves this week and Moss couldnt resist getting some. They start at 99p for the 350ml size, thats less than 50p per box!!! Edited January 14, 2007 by molfrew-mosstoad Quote
The Red Kite Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 (edited) I find their normal boxes very good but haven't seen the clip boxes in our local branch I did get excited just after christmas when I found eight mini boxes in Woolies for £2. That works out at 50p each as well. Now, where can I hide them? I feel another series coming on. Edited January 14, 2007 by The Red Kite Quote
+PopUpPirate Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Non locking Curvers (blue rim) are v v v well sealed, handy because they are in different sizes to the lock n locks. Cosmetic pots are reet too arent they. Quote

Cosmetic pots are reet too arent they. I have a few small round Curver boxes and they are SO well sealed it's hard to put the lid on. I have to flex the lid as I put it on to let the air out or else the lid pops off. Excellent boxes... not sure if every cacher would take care to replace the lids as well. Quote

+Bob Smith Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Wilkinsons also have similar boxes. 99p for the 0.33l size and I think £1.50 ish for the 1.0l size Bob S Quote

Sorry for my feeble attempt at a joke! I think it was your post that said that 8 for £2.00 worked out at 50p each, when it is 25p each. If we calculate our waypoints that way we would never find them! No offence intended! Quote

+scottpa100 Posted January 18, 2007 Author Posted January 18, 2007 Any examples of sizes and cost? The 468ml works out £1.49 normally, but 75p each when buying two (BOGOF). I've bought a total of 8 boxes, they'll all be suitable enough to small TBs and geocoins, and I just need an ammo box for the top cache that heads of the series then I can start laying them out!!
