we recently bought some m&m minis. they come in a plastic tube with a snap
lid. they are about twice the length of a film cannister and about the same
diameter. we put paper towel in one and submerged it into a glass of water
for about an hour and the paper towel came out bone dry. we plan on
creating a hitch hiker and some micro boxes with these containers.

HI! I thought about using them but wondered if I could get the smell of m&ms
out of the plastic. Maybe soaking the container in bleach would do the
trick.
Please post a note on how they work out!

I've found several letterboxes in Mini-M&M containers and they were
doing fine. (Most of these were in the Cincinatti, OH area).
