+Matrix Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I am looking for a Wrigleys Ice extra container its a strange request I know but there you go It is to replace a container that was originally used by Becky (ryme-intrinseca ) on this cache . None of my local shops seem to stock this brand anymore so If anyone can help to get me either an empty or even full one I would be very grateful Here is a picture of what I am looking for .

+Midnight Ramblers Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I saw a lady eating one of these on the bus this morning. I'll ask her next time ... Quote Link to comment
+Mr'D Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Personally I'd never use one of these again. They are not at all watertight. Bear in mind even if the log is in a small waterproof bag it will go missing - and I speak from experience Jon Quote Link to comment

+Gralorn Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Saw one of those in Swanage once, covered in black tape!! Quote Link to comment
The Red Kite Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 We saw one used to good effect at Sir Gareth's Gate during the Llangollen debacle last year. I actually bught one at the Spar in Blaneau Ffestiniog to use as a cache container. Well the place has to be good for something Quote Link to comment
+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 These are really common in London especially on the original Perthos caches. He may well have been the originator of this cache container type in these parts. Listerine breath strip cotainers are also common. Quote Link to comment

The idea for this cache was inspired by / stolen shamelessly from* the London urban caches, created by Perthos. *delete as applicable. Becky quoted the above in the original listing Quote Link to comment

+careygang Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 (edited) I'm looking for the right place to put this. The 'skinny' end should make a great place to glue a small HDD magnet. I'd like to 'hide it in plain sight', but out of weather so the log won't get wet. A whole 'nuther dimension to 'Altoids Tins' . . . JohnTee On a similar vein, saw this on the main forum pages. Our transatlantic cousins also have a use for recycled confectionery containers. I can recommend the thread 'Pictures - Cool Cache Containers (CCC's), If you post them....They will look' for some way-out containers. Edited July 9, 2007 by careygang Quote Link to comment
