When I received my studio cutter that was the first die 2.5 strips. One day after thanksgiving I went to walmart and they had these handle totes with orange/green tops clear bottoms for 1.00 each (they sell at joanns 6.00 each) took 20 of them.They stack and store well all my jellies/honeybuns etc. go into them. I love strip patterns and www.cozyquiltdesign is a great strip pattern shop.
