Spec me......some cereal containers!

StevieP · 12 Oct 2010 at 15:22

Bit of a strange request given its a computer forum but I've been looking for some decent cereal containers and can only seem to find crappy budget ones in places like Tesco & Asda!

Ideally I want them to be at least 5 litre and must be air-tight! (you'd be amazed how many have a loose fitting top the surely defeats the purpose of having them in a container in the first place!?!?! :confused:

)

Cheers,

StevieP

I tend to use the one that comes with the cereal, I think it's called a cardboard box and a plastic liner.

I use the hollowed out skulls of the enemies I have personally killed in battle.

That or Tupperware.

You're right, most aren't airtight, so just coil the bag inside the box. That's better than most plastic efforts.

Unless you get some tupperware and stack them on their ends.

We use Lock and lock ones like this. I know its not 5L but does the trick. (ours is slightly different but same idea)

How hard is it to go to a shop and buy a plastic tub bloody hell, if you have to come on a forum and ask for advice then you don't have a lot going for you

Who cares, it goes mushy when the milk goes on anyway . . . .
