Doh!
I wish you would have told me then! Odds are they just pitched the
tubs, and I could have packed at least some of them in my car.
The new tubs suck, as the lids don't clip on very securely, and the
studs sticking up take up a bit too much space - the SamsClub racks I
have set up for my old tubs won't fit the new, and if I reset the
shelves, I get 1-2 less shelves per rack. And the slightly oval sides
waste a lot of space when stacking bricks in them.
I miss the old style tub, and really enjoy it when they bring it back
out every once in a while (just bought 30 6092 and 10 3191, mostly for
the 1/2 height tubs! I'm hoping the blue 1/2 height makes it here from
overseas...).
