My daily deal were coloring books ???
The box wasn't a daily deal, it was on sale. I bought it when the Rhombus template was the free daily deal so added the box to it.

I would have to check further before ordering
That would have taken the mystery out of it. Too inexpensive not to find out what it is. LOL

I have a bunch of those Art Bin containers (not the charm pack one). I get them as gifts since they are on my Amazon wish list. I use mine for jelly rolls and layer cakes. I've never seen the charm pack size, but I use other boxes for my charm packs. I also use the square containers to tote my blocks to/from my quilt club meetings.

I also have the strip boxes. The are great. The strip boxes are very deep, holds a lot of strips wrinkle free. Great for log cabin or string piecing.

I got my boxes that I ordered with joanns half off sale. Bought quite a few super satchels for my new projects and a bunch of thread holders as I have a lot of thread I needed to get in one place. Also have ordered the clear acrylic boxes for my original scrapbox. I am not able to get out to my sewing shed because of all the snow we have had. Lucky I am able to get out of the house, for a week I was literally snowed into my house. Doors were blocked by 3 ft of snow. Road is blocked more than its open. Fed ex here yesterday, ups came and got stuck so the maintainer who had come in to open my road & yard had to pull him out.

The box I received is a nice square box with removeable lid. No zipper, handle or compartments. LOL It's a nice charm square keeper container. It holds 3 packs of charm squares. Perfect for when you are gifting someone a charm square pack.

I have the strip boxes and I got one of these for charms as well. I found boxes of a similar size at Dollar Tree and the price was much better. Just take your tape measure and measure the inside of the box -- you have to get a box a bit bigger because of the rounded corners. I bought a bunch since they hold the squares and the HSTs.

Someone here turned me on to IKEA for these boxes. I guess they are 3" wide and have 12 different compartments. She said they fit the 2.5" charms beautifully. I'd like to try these. For $4 can't go wrong....

Has anyone used the Art Bin Solutions Compartment Box 4-48 or the Art Bin Super Satchel Box 9007AB to store their 5" or 2.5" charms?
Both have removable dividers so you can determine the size of the compartments that you want inside and the Art Bin plastic is supposedly acid free.

I looked at the Ikea boxes and thought they might be a good short term solution since they are the right size for 2.5" charms but the cardboard is not acid free and I didn't think they were very durable.
