Wipe containers

What do you do with your wipe containers? I use to buy the refill bags but with coupons it is cheaper for me to buy the tubs. So I am sure that I will end up with a million more containers.

So far I have thought of ~

using them to hold plastic bags under my kitchen sink

hold small toys

to hold receipts

markers, pencils..... art kits

Anyone have any other ideas?

You took all my ideas, outside of that, the only thing I could think of is that they are recyclable is to recycle them

I recycle them ...I used some for making snow forts or sand castles.scrapbooking supplies, crayons, markers, childproofing supplies like outlet covers, sewing kit,coins, first aid kit. Keep one of these in the backseat of your car filled with small kids items for car rides. Some things that work well would be Hot Wheels, McDonald's toys, or any small toy assortment. Cookie cutters and cake decorating tips fit neatly into this box.
I wish they would bring back the lego shaped....when I was teaching preK these were a big hit with the boys to build towers, the shape is just a bit off now for doing this.
