10 forum posts	Coming home on the train with SWMBO yesterday I noticed her clear a chewing gum packet from her seat and place it on the one behind. A little while later I went to put some rubbish in the bin and picked up this packet to throw in bin as well. Except the packet was a small tin. Geuine Wrigleys and new. Lid flips and locks reasonably well into place. Naturally it went in the pocket, a small store for drill bits. So look out for the chewing gum in tins, or at least the discarded tins. As tin boxes seem to be making a bit of a comeback has anyone else spotted any more suitable tin storage boxes?
