- PVC pipe used to be pretty popular in the area until St. Louis County Parks forbade its use because it looks too much like a bomb. Not an entirely trivial consideration in today's climate, no matter where you hide it. But it is a cheap container.

They've been out for almost two months and everything was dry. I'm guessing they were pretty cheap to put together. -----Original Message----- From: geocaching-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:geocaching-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dave Sent: Tuesday, January 26, 2010 4:03 PM To: geocaching@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [GeoStL] Another cache container possibility - I was up in the city last week with Chalkdusty to stop at some bookstores and a teachers' supply store. (The particular teachers' supply place was Bradburn's off of Olive, but I would imagine most stores would have something similar.) In with the science experiment supplies, Donna found what was labeled as "jumbo test tubes", which were actually preform bottles with screw-on lids, two for just under four dollars. Has anyone else out there seen them or used them in a cache? (The pill container bison tube substitute I found earlier seemed general knowledge -- I was wondering if the test tubes and/or source were already a known discovery...)
