useful freebie 15L buckets

[RichVic]

hello all,
Just wanted to share this with all you D.I.Y handypeople. McDonalds, yes makers of the Big Mac burger, throw out their pickle buckets once empty and we've been going in each week & offering to take them off their hands. Sometimes 3 or 4, other times somebody else has beaten us to it. 100's of uses, the local kindergarten are storing everyhting in them! Anyway, there
Strong, food grade white plastic containers with lids! I'm using mine to mix up the beefheart recipe, transport discus and wash gravel in this weekend. Hope you find your local McDonalds store does the same. Cheers Vicki
