  • Bargain Containers?

    Hi All,

    Not sure if any of you have a Netto store local to you but I have just picked up a number of Beaufort Brand ClipSeal plastic storage containers in various sizes (1l, 1.5l and 2l) and in both square and rectangle shapes and all at 50p each. These are a completely clear plastic container with 2 clips locks to hold the clear lid securely in place.

    Needless to say the price for these container was too tempting and I pretty much cleared out my local store lol

      Carole if you have a hobby craft close to you, they are doing some great deals in there on rubs and containers of ALL sizes, not as cheap as 50p but all really well made and clip lock lids... might be a thought

                  Carole, the barcode off those 10 Litre Storage Box at Morrisons is 5010251319498. Not sure if you rang your store they could see if they had stock. They never seem to be near the other storage containers when I go to my store and I have to hunt for them. I have just transferred my new H. gigas into one with 10"of coir and a burrow made with the assistance of a waterbottle. She went straight down it so I think she is happy

                  We are lucky enough to be surrounded by Netto, Lidl and Aldi stores so get a good selection of household items on occasions.

                    Thats great Richard, thanks for that. I found something very much like it on ebay, but it was over £4 not including £3 P+P. This way I can go to the store see if they have any and if not, see if they can order me some in. Just checked my nearest Netto store, 103 miles away, lol!

                          Asda have 5ltr cereal tubs, as do wilkinsons...for all my smaller spiders I use medical suppliers who now deal in 1ltr and up clear plastic jars with aluminium screw lids for about £3 each, pill tubs up to 500ml and not to mention 200ml and 300ml urine sample pots for my arboreal slings, theyre about £8.50 for 10 last time I ordered them. I think asda's offeron 5ltr tubs is still on too, I bought 10 last week they were in big bins so I reckon itll be store wide promo! If you know anyone with a koi pond, nishikoi pellet tubs are perfect spider tubs and they come in three sizes. I work in a marine fish retailer so I offer every purchase of nishikoi a 50p return if they bring me the tubs back Forgot to mention also, wyevale garden centres sell rolls of 1-2" thick bamboo on a 1m roll for garden borders, £7.99 a roll and just clip the wire off at one end and they are great for arboreal slings too!

                            Thanks for that am gonna have to get off to Netto at the weekend lol.

                            What size are those tubs (in length/width)? I really don't understand litres lol. I'm looking for some containers but the local home bargaina didn't have big enough ones that were clear.
