Anyone got a surplus?

I'm wanting to make another of my megabatches of veggie soup, but need something to store it all in.

If you have a friend with an FAL card, you can get 50 odd bowls or containers for about $8 and 50 odd lids for about $3.

You can get disposable freezer containers (which are reusable) from the same isle as freezer bags/sandwich bags etc at Woolies/coles etc. They are not as cheap as the FAL stuff, but not too expensive (I think it was about $3 for 8 - containers with lids).

I don't keep takeaway containers - I buy takeaway so I DON'T have to do washing up - and gee they annoy me when they are in the cupboard!

Back when I made my last batch, I lived with a housemate who had Chinese at least once a week, so we had a massive pile of containers. They were ideal for storing soup. I barely ever eat Chinese takeaway (or anything that comes in a takeaway container) anymore. Maybe I will have to eventually bite the bullet and buy some, but it just seems like a waste when so many people are just throwing them out.
