good cheap 52litre plastic tubs

Just tought i would let everyone know that woolies has good 52L tubs with good lids for about $10.
I got mine at indooroopilly but im sure most stores will have them. The brand is "starmaid".
They also had 60watt screw reflector globes 2 for $4.50.

R-80 are a reflector bulb.The shape is different to your normal candesant bulb and slightly larger.

RE: good cheap 52litre plastic tubs

Bunnings is always a winner in the plastic tub department, and globes. See the new 'long life' phillips screw bulbs? Bought a few and theyve so far lasted longer then the standard poo.

RE: good cheap 52litre plastic tubs

I tried spaying some bulbs with engine enamel after someone said thats what they do for night bulbs. Works a treat. I picked up a pack of ten bulbs for $4 and a can of paint for $12. You can spray them so no light comes through at all, Cheaper than ceramics. Good idea who ever it was.

RE: good cheap 52litre plastic tubs

These tubs are great, Woolworths in NSW has them on special this week for $9.90 instead of $18 so they are a big saving.
