It may the most common question I get from readers when they see my collection:
What kind of cases are those, and where did you get them?
The answer:
These are 48-count plastic carrying cases, and are made by a company called Creative Options. They used to be marketed as diecast car cases, but are now marketed as “Thread Organizers” for the sewing set. I keep almost all of my collection loose, and unless they are in a display, all of the cars in my collection are housed in these.
And I just bought nine more, and they are available to you too. I got these cases from Walmart.com, and I wanted to pass the info on, especially since they are on sale right now. I have seen them at stores priced anywhere from $10 to $15, but at Walmart.com they are currently on sale for $6.75 each with FREE Shipping. That is a killer deal.
You can get them here:

I particularly like these because the plastic is smooth with a little give, meaning cars can roll around a bit without getting damaged. The vertical style also means they are easy to store. Many of you already use them, and I am sure there are a few more that won’t be disappointed if you get them.
I don’t know how long this deal goes, so act fast…
