Tip: Where to get cheap(ish) filament airtight containers in the UK

Ok I'm about to sound like a 50s housewife but I thought I'd give a heads up though for others searching. I came across this nicely sized 5L container at The Range for only a fiver, you can see some filament in the box in the picture for reference.

I'm gonna wait a week for them to be back in stock at Reading and get some more but it's way cheaper than these things usually are (plus they're usually too small or too big)

Why not use zip-lock bags?

Mine keep getting ripped open

- For those who have a DollarTree around you can get some good containers for $1. They also carry moisture absorbing products (for only a $1).

- For spools with a wider Traverse Feed length and shorter Flange I use THESE taller ones.

- For spools with a larger Flange Diameter and shorter Traverse Feed I use THESE wider ones.
