Alternative uses for Food Storage containers

As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, in my laundry room I have a bunch of small Rubbermaid totes to store and organize a wide variety items.

One of the things I keep in my totes (since I don't have a garage) are nuts, bolts, screws and nails sorted and stored inside of Rubbermaid Premier food storage containers.

Not only is Premier great for storing food, I have found it to be an awesome way to organize small hardware.

Do you have any alternative uses for food storage containers? We would love to hear your ideas.
