Wanted: Empty Sampler Tins

by rhpot1991 » Feb 27th 06 4:18 pm

Just wondering if anyone has any empty sampler tins that they would be willing to trade for say tea bags or something.

Just, FYI after the conversation the other day. I did find some tins at www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com - I get my soap molds and lotion bottles form them and noticed they had round tins. Still can't find the square ones like adagio has though.

My concern with them was that the metal tins I saw on their site were not specified as "food grade". That always worries me.

As for sample tins like the ones Adagio has, I'd rather find stackable tins. Although I am finding that search to be just as difficult.

I was wondering about being food grade actually. I was thinking of just calling them but I still really want different ones more like adagios. I guess I'll just keep searching.

I have a TON! pay shipping and they are yours, I've been keeping them thinking I'd come up with a use for them but now they are just cluttering up my counter.
