[cool][#0000ff]We use a lot of the plastic containers for storing stuff, but you don't always need the lids if they are in a protected area and what you are storing is not fragile (seasonal clothes, etc.). sometimes you can stack 4 or 5 partially full containers in the space a couple with lids would occupy.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Actually, I pick up lids all the time where people have just tossed or lost them. Also, when we do the yard sale thing, it is common to find odds and ends that people will just give you or sell for 50 cents. And, if you know anybody who is moving, you can save that kinda stuff from DI or the dumpster. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I have a stack of a half dozen "orphan" lids in my garage at any given time. Not even sure where I got that green one. It was cracked on one side and probably discarded. But, I needed to trim out that area anyway. [/#0000ff]
