Works For Me Wednesday - Containers

Y'all, I'm involved in an unhealthy obsession. With Sterilite #1695. And I get them at Dollar Tree. For a dollar.

I'm in love.

Guys, I go to Dollar Tree about once a week, and I almost never leave without two or three of these bad boys. They are the perfect size for CDs, DVDs and XBox games. They stack. They have a flat bottom and will nicely hold an assortment of Children's Tylenol bottles. They have handles and all those nice little holes, so they are easy to grab and carry, even for uncoordinated female minor children.

I can see 8 of these little loves from where I sit right now.

They contain:

Kids' computer games
My computer CDs
Music CDs
Crayons and glue
Pooh's reading books
Tink's reading books
Flash cards
And the last little piggy went empty, but hopes to be filled soon.

So, am I a container geek? I believe so, and I blame Laura. And I thank her.

Be sure to go on over to Shannon's and check out the more mentally balanced tips and tricks.

Now I have some containers to fill. And don't forget to come back and see me for Advice Forum Friday, ya hear?

I also found similar containers recently at one of our local stores that I also bought out!

Fantastic....I LOVE it! An addict is always happiest when others are sharing their addiction...he he.

ME, TOO! I'm a box addict!

This post made me laugh! Also, I'm assuming that you must be an XBOX Wife, too - considering you mentioned XBOX games to go in the boxes.

Thanks for sharing your great tip!
