The plastic boxes for wet wipes that is. We buy our wet wipes from Costco but buy the Huggies ones and each box comes with one of the big boxes and one of the travel cases. So now that my daughter is 21 months we have quite a few of them, so I was just curious do others put something in them or just toss them (which I really don't want to do) or do something else with them?
My girls have about 5 in their room. They're holding little toys, like things from happy meals and the little dolls, like Barbie's little sister.
I also buy mine in bulk, like you, so I have a few of the cases as well...since I have two kids in diapers I keep a full sized wipes box, not travel, in my diaper bag, I also have a container in my living room and one in my bedroom..I even have some in my bathroom..I tend to keep them stashed everywhere because that way I am never without wipes..
My MIL used to have a bunch that she kept some of her craft stuff in, like ribbons and stuff and SIL(she's only 12 now) used to keep crayons in one..

Isn't it cheaper to do that also...? We found it cheaper to refill ours- so we've had the SAME box thingys for over two years. Let's just say they have been through a lot.
Quoting ksmama88:
why dont you just buy the refill packs from now on...thats what i do ....the wipes just come in a bag. so you would open the bag and put the wipes in the plastic box that you already have....but a suggestion is..tub toys...we keep DDs tub toys in a plastic wipes box
I always bought the case of refills, and so I only ever had one box at a time... and then for travel, I took them out of the box, and put them in a zip lock bag in the diaper bag. If I had lots of them, I'd probably use them for storing stuff on my husband's tool bench, screws, nails, etc... and they'd be dandy to hold card games that had lost the boxes to... like yatzee, etc... Heck, the pearly white ones, with the pop up lids, I'd put on the dresser, or the top of the dryer, or wherever people undress, so they could put loose change in them. Nobody robbing the place would think to look in a box of wipes for money, I don't think... Let's see... what else... you could use them for packing toothpaste, and other "squeezables" in for trips, to keep them from getting squeezed all over the inside of the suitcase or duffle bag... take the tops off of them, and use them to organize socks and underwear in the dresser drawers... check the measurements, but they might work inside a milk crate type thing as dividers for stuff... or hot glue a bunch into a square or rectangle, and use them as a toss across type game... put numbers in the bottoms of them, and keep score that way...
I usually just buy the packs that are like refill packs, but have an opening so you can close it back up and all. But i do have one of the hard cases in my house and i been filling it with change, and its almost filled. I was thinking about filling alot of them and saving it for my son.
Thats what I buy
