Rubbermaid makes a jillion types. If you have a Grocery Outlet store close enough, check there for food storage containers. My G.O. has oodles of them, in every size.

Plastic is not great. (Only 9% of plastic waste has ever been recycled.) Pyrex is very good although the lids on mine are starting to lose their snap-into-place-ness. They are several years old and maybe I can just replace the lids.

My brother had the bedspread! Happy memories!

I still have a crazy Marimekko 3-ring binder my mother gave me, in a pattern I’ve never seen. It holds family recipes, and I’m so grateful for it!

That was my first thought too. But one will have to buy new lids now and again.

OP I’ve had the glass Pyrex with snap lid set from Costco for about 7 years - still almost like new (one snap broke on 1 lid). I just bought a 2nd so that I don’t run out when I freeze soup. The set comes with maybe 7 total, 4 different sizes, ~$30.

Of course there is always washing out and re-using yogurt and cottage cheese containers….
