Stirling Sample Containers?

[Spider]

What do you do with your stirling samples? If I only had one, I'd just use it loose, and would eventually put it in my clown puke tub. But I have about a dozen samples, so I want them in something decent, because it's going to take me a while to get through them. I'm looking for some type of container to put them in, so I can take the label off the sample and put on the container. Any suggestions? Hopefully some sort of container that is close to the same diameter as the sample, so I can easily load right on top. I've been looking at a couple of containers, just want to see if anyone has any better ideas before I buy.

I sorta remember that. Looking for something hopefully cheaper than a buck a piece.

For some reason, I can't open Stirling's site at work. But that looks similar to what I'm looking at on eBay.

I like the Stirling ones. Fit nicely. But honestly I usually cut a slit in the plastic cover and cut off a piece of soap to squish in the bowl. Ya ya, KJ don't do bowl lathering.

They're $1.75-$2.50 a piece anyway so doesn't fit your criteria

There, my cut n paste has defeated your super military security measures.

Well, the reason I got the idea is that someone in the UK posted about these plastic pop-top containers that they said are perfect for Stirling Samples. But that type of container is apparently specific to the UK and all the sellers are charging $30 for shipping. Just wanted to see if anyone here found anything similar. I've been searching amazon/eBay all morning and the tins so far seem to be my best option. I just need to measure the labels when I get home and see how they will fit.

Thanks. There's always a workaround! The tins on eBay are 2oz. And under $1 a piece. Just need to measure to see if they'll work.

Makes sense and I knew you would Let me know if you find a cheaper solution. I might go crazy with Stirling samples if you do.

Whenever I go through a Stirling Sample I usually steal a small tupperware bowl, throw it in and go.

Hard to steal as many as KJ has samples though without getting caught

Thanks for the link. If the ones I'm looking at wont work, I may just look for those.
