2 inch tins with lids and labels!

[newbie]

This made me think of this forum. I have no idea how much people pay for tin round containers but these are about 33 cents a piece and come with lids and labels. Might be good for a discs of lotion bars or lip balm or something like that. Just thought I'd pass it along!

Already got mine. They are all silver btw. Which I like better than then avocado color on the box. They also have "mats, kitchen cutting" which I think are polycarb but the package turned out to be totaly blank. Will try to use them as mold liners. They were $1.50 per two pack.

Thanks for sharing the link, Newbie! Such an interesting place to wander around!!!! I agree the tins would be lovely for lotion bars or anything not liquid.

Did you see these clear screw-top containers: http://www.sciplus.com/p/12-CLEAR-PLASTIC-CANISTERS-IN-A-BOX_44940

Or these little disposable cups for tiny amounts of stuff: http://www.sciplus.com/p/MEDICINE-CUPS_49494 I would NOT use these cups for FOs or EOs -- the fragrance will melt this plastic and make a huge mess.

These thick-walled syrup cups might be even better if you prefer to wash and reuse: http://www.sciplus.com/p/2-OUNCE-SYRUP-CUPS_49049 It doesn't say if these cups are styrene, so not sure if they're FO or EO safe. I would assume they are not until I knew otherwise.

This place is seriously dangerous to my wallet...

And these PET Flasks for the chic geek lotion maker? I'm not sure how PET reacts with EO/FOs though.

It's also my go to whenever I need a pair of Italian tank pilot goggles or a German decontamination field kit.

I've used clear PET jars for lotions and scrubs with FOs... no problems.

PET should be fine for EOs and FOs. PET = Polyethylene terephthalate.

If you click on the image, they are silver. The green is actually stickers!

Good find Newbie

Anyone know how many oz those tins are? 1 oz maybe?

2 oz, and yes I bought them.

I bought them as well. The little plastic window can pop out if you put too much pressure on it but they are nice.

I also bought a ton of their little cream plastic coated 1 ounce "baby bottles" for 9 cents a piece and ordered silicone corks from another place for about 14 cents so now I can swap fragrances in glass bottles for fairly cheap! I just tape the corks down.

You can also get a squirting toilet there. It works well.
