FWP.....I have a Rubbermaid storage tote I've used for a camp kitchen box for a good 15 years...it's died :(

Trying to find a replacement - I can order a case of 8 but can find them individually :(

Partially related: When I grew up (old man post warning), Tupperware was serious quality for-life stuff. - ty97 Jun 25, 20:25 8
- Sure, but instead of 30 bucks for a lettuce holder now you can get 4 containers for 3 bucks. -- nm - Ender Jun 25, 20:53 4
  - That epitomizes the Tupperware problem - ty97 Jun 25, 20:56 3
    - Have you noticed fastfood trays? They used to be sturdy enough totake a bullet. Now they are so thin the weight of the food bends them. -- nm - Spawnaldo Jun 25, 21:14
    - I'm starting to look for a new refrigerator and can't believe how flimsy the shelves and drawer are. -- nm - Meg Jun 25, 21:13 1
      - B- But I just found a $35 vacuum cleaner today and was thrilled how perfect it was. -- nm - Qale Jun 25, 21:59
- Heh, I have Tupperware going back to...?....the 70s? And CorningWare pre-dating that. -- nm - Meg Jun 25, 20:34 2
  - My parents do too and I hope to inherit it - ty97 Jun 25, 20:36 1
    - The vintage Corning is a lot better than the new. -- nm - .... Jun 25, 21:04
Not sure what features you need, but if the answer is "a rubber bin with a lid", they have those at Walmart. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 25, 20:24 10
- Yep, looked at those. Most of them are bigger than I need and one that I liked had a row of little holes under the handles. - Meg Jun 25, 20:32 9
  - Is the corpse gone or could you take a pic? -- nm - Spawnaldo Jun 25, 20:55
  - This is what I'm looking for - I know just how my stuff fits in this... -- (link) - Meg Jun 25, 20:41 7
    - So, tris? -- (link) - Ender Jun 25, 20:57 6
      - "this" -- nm - Ender Jun 25, 20:59 5
        
        Yes, but I'm not yet ready to pay $14 for it :) -- nm - Meg Jun 25, 21:11 4
        
        I think we have a purple one of those. Let me look around tomorrow night after work and see what it's status is. -- nm - Spawnaldo Jun 25, 21:13 3
        
        Eh, I'm sure I'll find something. I just get pissed when something that's part of my life dies and it's no longer available :/ - Meg Jun 25, 21:21 2
        
        Yeah, not a fan of change. - Spawnaldo Jun 25, 21:22 1
        
        You know I appreciate the offer but that's really more than the thing's worth. I'll cope :) -- nm - Meg Jun 25, 21:37
