It was a Labor Day coupon. Has expired now. Just have to keep your eyes on the boards for the next sale and someone to post up the code.

I've found the >75 cup/6.1 fluid oz/style LBF805 to be perfect for half an unlined index card logbook and stamp. Not real HH friendly but an easier hide than larger sizes.

Are the ones with the round lids as good as those with rectangular lids? I'm wondering because a place that I was considering would need a round one. It turned out to not be such a good place, so I'm looking for another place like it.

I semi-prepared the place for a hide. I figured out how I could finish preparing the place when I came by another time. It is right along a popular walking trail and I was going to be bold and try it. But the next time I came by the preliminary preparations I'd done were totally gone. I'm glad that I discovered just how bad it was before I actually hid something there. It would have been an excellent hide too, but if it didn't last even that long I would have lost my stamp very quickly.

I know this is an older post now, but I've found the best place to get cheap tupperware for LBs are resale shops. There is no reason to pay full price for something that's going to be sitting outside in the elements and doesn't have to brand-new. You could easily find what you need for less than a dollar. I just wanted to pass on a tip. :)
