Lucky you to be able to even BUY them. The pizza places around me wont' sell. I switched to Iris scrapbooking boxes with a flip top lid. I get them at Micheals when they are on sale for around $4. I have quit buying them as the more I buy, the more UFOs I make!

[QUOTE - I use to use pizza boxes too. But I like seeing thru clear plastic so I switched to paper crafting boxes.[/QUOTE]

I also use the paper crafting plastic boxes - the shallow ones - and also,use the deeper ones with handles for carrying, etc. wait for coupons at Michael's and JoAnn's for a good price or when they go,on sale for 50% or even more. Apparently I have now turned into a container-aholic - love them! The Container Store has fabulous ones of all sizes but can get pricey unless on sale. That store sends me into shivers of excitement!!! Good thing it's way down in Charlotte about 40 miles or so away.

The closest one to me is across Phoenix in Scottsdale...but I heard wonderful terrifying news! They are opening a new one RIGHT down the street from my church! Oh my DH does not know what trouble he is in ! I love that place so much, I might apply for a job! I think it is a toss up whether I love quilt shops or The Container Store more!!

I think I might have been tempted to buy not only the rotissier chicken, but a large pizza as well.

I hang on to the clear plastic containers from salad greens. I use them to organize my scraps They also stack nicely on my storage unit.

I use the clear salad containers, too. They are sturdy enough to stack on each other and they and keep my scraps organized. A great way to repurpose those lovely containers!

The SuperCenter here makes and sells fresh pizza uncooked so has all size boxes, just like a pizza house. I have gotten the empty frosting buckets there too. These are food grade storage buckets.
