A Whole New Level of Awesome

Cleaning products have now reached, as suggested by the title, a whole new level of awesome.

Ladies and gentlemen I give you, COLLECTIBLE TINS!

Yes, that's right, you can now purchase your "Finish" brand dishwasher tablets in a special "collect all seven" collector's tin! Why? Because we as a species are ridiculous! I mean, what a way to promote your item, but seriously? Are we really going to go out of our way to get all seven dishwashing tablet tins? (Gee, doesn't that just roll right off the tongue.)

I could understand when they started making jam jars into collectible glasses. They're already the right shape, and they add a touch of whimsical to your kitchen. But these tins?  A foot tall, 7 inches wide and an inch deep? I'm racking my brains for a creative way to re-use them ... and believe me, I will find it. Because I am, in fact, in possession of one of these tins. I have NO idea how I'm going to make it useful, but I am darn well going to try! It's too good of an opportunity to pass up.

Ideas anyone?
