Empty spice container, thyme I believe. Free and doesn't take up much space.

I use the Feather plastic blade bank. It costs me like $5 on Amazon. Im loving some of these repurposing ideas though.
So far I've been using the blade bank on the back of the VdH track. I'm unsure if I could use the other side if it got full though. When that's full I'll figure something out. The juice jug idea is pretty nifty.
Taylor's shaving cream plastic container. One full, I tape it shut and toss.

I use an food container for Aquarium fish empty, once is full I tape it and leave it in an Medical center.
That's pretty much what I do. I have a specially marked large prescription bottle, and when (if ever) it gets full I can dump it into into my (diabetic) son's sharps bucket.
I just use an old, cleaned out peanutbutter jar. I keep the plastic lid screwed on and I have slit cut into the top. I've used it for 2 years straight and it is not even a 1/4th of the way full.
Basically free, efficient, and works like a charm.

I'm using an empty soup can. After 6.5 years, it's not even half full.
I use an old Planters mixed nuts can with a slit in the top of the lid. A year later, and it's nowhere near full.
Hi,
So, no one so far has an old house....

Most people wouldn't have used those for cartridges, because they would have to use a hammer to widen the slot.
I am way behind all yous guys. I have been shaving a little over a year. I shave a little less often than every other day. I average about 7 shaves per blade. As I have only used 14 blades so far, there is plenty of room in the plastic tuck which was my first purchase of merkur blades. I will look for a solution when I fill up the three plastic tucks I have.
@certna348 - That's good for when you have the plastic dispenser. Most of my shaving years, _all_ of the blades came in the dispensers, so it wasn't a problem. right now, I have 300 blades that use NO dispenser, and my wife, who thinks that plastic and razor sharp pieces of metal belong directly in the trash can.
In Thailand they sell Feather metal boxes for 20 baht(50p). i bought five of them and gave away 2 to friends i turned on to DE shaving. I have 2 left and one so full it's getting tough to squeeze more in. I need to dump it soon and move on the the next one. I have loads of blades and dump them all after 3 or 4 shaves (including head shaves) so one of these boxes is good for at least 3 years.
Even passing glue tape on the outside it remains dangerous because the blades are very sharp and it is preferable to print on a sheet of paper the image of a blade and then glue it to the container with transparent glue tape which also draws attention for what's inside of the container and without the danger of someone cutting himself
Good idea. I'm clumsy enough to cut myself taping a razor blade to a tin.Even passing glue tape on the outside it remains dangerous because the blades are very sharp and it is preferable to print on a sheet of paper the image of a blade and then glue it to the container with transparent glue tape which also draws attention for what's inside of the container and without the danger of someone cutting himself
I have an empty Baking Powder container with a crude slit in the lid. I know, maybe a little too fancy for some of you folks, but I think I'm worth it.
