OMGosh! I loved my Dad, but we have just spent two years cleaning out all of these types of containers! He saved baby food jars, margarine tubs, anything that would hold anything!! He also would cut cans (the rectangular kind) down and make a wood tote and put about six in to store nuts, bolts, etc. You have NO idea. And when he'd get the building too full to move around in, he'd build another building!! Four buildings full of stuff like this. AUGH!!! So save a few, but get rid of the rest. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!!
