Yes, plastic produce containers. I prefer the kind without attached lids, but they are easy enough to cut the lids off if necessary. Make sure you wash them very well, but Not in the dishwasher. They will warp and be unusable.

I love that they are free, do not wind up in the landfill, and they are see-through. I organize mine by color as well as by value, trying to range from light to dark as it looks like love to sew may have done as well. I love the idea of the cardboard strip to make the squares behave themselves!
