    where do you find those lock n lock containers?

    Do not get them from that discount store that has 2 words in it. They are Steralite brand containers and the hinges break off after a month or so. You could use tape to hold them togather for a bit longer. I have found some in a package at one of the dollar stores. You get I think 12 in a package of different sizes for $8.00 i belive.

    You can get the good Lock N Locks at Target. They often have package deals.

    The local Sentry had them….(before they went out of business like half of the companies in town).

      Don’t know how many of you get the LTD book but their Harvest 2010 book has the original Lock & Lock in it. They must be original as they have the trademark symbol after the name. They offer 2 different sets-10 pc and 20 pc. The 10 set is round and includes 1 each of the following: 3 oz, 8 oz, 16 oz, 29 oz, 47 oz and lids. They sell for $9.95 + shipping of course!

      The 20 pc set has 1 each of the following: 6 oz rectangle, 11 oz rectangle, 14 oz square, 23 oz square, 29 oz rectangle, 43 oz tall, 27 oz rectangle, 54 oz rectangle, 88 oz (not sure on shape just says large!), and 152 oz (not sure on shape just says extra large) and lids. These sell for $25.95 + shipping.

      I have never priced lock & locks – does anyone know if this is a good deal??

      Unless the shipping is totally outrageous, $25.95 for 20 pieces of even the lousy stuff seems to be a good deal.

      Durability on the hinges can be increased by 1) duct tape reinforcement or 2) placing it as a 5/5 to limit the number of times it gets opened. 😀
