We don't even take the lids when we buy new tubs, at this point. I have used old tub lids as a 'food catcher' for our new chickens, so they wouldn't make as much of a mess. That didn't last long.
The cashiers from Big Lots don't seem to learn, as frequently as we have been in, that we still do not want lids.
A typical Big Lots tub transaction:
"Oh, don't forget your lids!"
"We don't need them, but thanks"
"Why wouldn't you need the lids?"
"We use them for snakes, not sweaters"
"Wont they get out???"
"No, they're very well behaved snakes.... "
Cashier stares, wide-eyed
"....just kidding, they fit like drawers where the shelf works as a lid".
"Oh, thank God"
