I emailed Diane from my local Freecycle group today to let her know that I have successfully saved one 18 oz oatmeal container and three Pringles containers. I acquired one of the Pringles containers from Geoff at work. The other two I've been saving. Pringles are delicious, and this was a good excuse to eat some. I discovered, too, that the best kind are the plain Pringles. (They now make 800,000 varieties of Pringles, and I think some include ketchup.) This is true of a lot of things. Plain cheese pizza is delicious. White socks. Jeans and t-shirt. Grapes, bananas, and apples. Tossed salad with just a few good, but really fresh ingredients. Simplicity rules.
I don't really know how the containers will be used--I've imagined a giant cardboard robot, but it probably has more to do with kaleidoscopes or drums or something. Could be a piggy bank. The opportunities are endless with reclaimed containers. Personally, I used to love making guitars out of kleenex boxes and rubber bands.
