Amanda,

I will check out Rite-Aid here in CT for those containers. Also thanks for the hint about using colored duct tape.  Is there any end to the utility of that stuff?

I just found some really cute containers at the local Rite Aid drugs
(for $1.25 each) They are small boxes and come in white, and many
other colors---I bought out the green and orange ones!!  I used the
Orange ones to hide boxes in the Virginia area just recently and I
discovered that they camouflaged quite nicely with the red clay and
dead leaves!  I plan to use the green ones in areas in the Pacific
Northwest with lots of mossy green logs and evergreen firs!

Don and Gwen of California use colored duct tape to cover their boxes
to match the area they are hidden!  I found a box of theirs that was
hidden in a rotted log. The box was covered with a beigy-brown tape
that totally matched the color of the rotten wood!!  They have an
urban box that they used the silver duct tape on---so the box blends
in with the concrete area where it is hidden.
