Coffee Cans are typically large enough to hold small items, have a tight fitting lid and are easily portable. There are many ways you can use coffee cans as storage containers. Just wash out and use. Here are some ideas from Frugal Village:

• Kitchen: store cookie cutters, drink pouches, cookies, sugar, rice, etc. Store pet treats, steel wool pads, sponges, etc. underneath the sink.
• Bathroom: use to hold onto hair accessories, cosmetics, washcloths, or travel-sized toiletries.
• The Car: use for packing travel activities for kids, snacks or emergency supplies. You could also store a homemade first aid kit in a coffee can.
