Rubbermaid Christmas Tree Totes

[jlyoncc1]

I have checked everywhere for these thinking I would like to use a couple and have a couple on hand. Are they actually called this and made by rubbermaid? I can't even find them on rubbermaids site. Does anyone have a part# off of a sticker or anything? I have checked walmart to no avail. Thanks!!!!

Do you mean the tree bags?

I guess they are a plastic storage container that is larger that is used for a tort enclosure.

Hi Dee
The only place I've ever found them is Walmart. You may have to ask a store employee....sometimes they dont even know. LOL
Good Luck.
Last Christmas a guy on another forum bought 4 (or so) at $4.00
What a steal!!! I paid like $24.00 for mine.

Thanks Tracy!

They are 24.95 at Wal-Mart right now, I wish they would come down a bit. I will be keeping my eye open for clearance pricing on them. I would like to have a couple for extra turt/tort setups as well as to store my set of 3 xmas pencil trees.

Dee they are made by Iris. I haven't seen the christmas tree ones at my walmart, but they do have what they call, I think, a holiday tote. It's the same size, but has 2 wheels.
I have to say I got some, 15 , earlier this year for $3.00 each. SORRY

Have you tried calling your local Home Depot, Menards, Lowes type hardware big box store? I was going to go check ours out after I takes the kids (screaming) back to school tomorrow.

 

[jlyoncc1]

Have not checked lowes yet, I will have to go and check.

Hey, do you have a Costco or Sams Club near you?

They may have a good seasonal storage selection at good prices.

 

[jlyoncc1]

I am not a member there.

 

[Cam]

I'm not either.
BUT I have gone a couple times with friends, then we went to the DQ and I treated them to a Blizzard...of course you might choose someplace warm on a day like this (here it is negative digiits wind chill)

How about a feed store? Or a Fleet Farm?

I just got mine at Wal mart $24.00 said all xmas items 50% off but when I questioned they said not the tote. But I got it anyway. Only had one though. Its the one with the two wheels, red top. Didn't see anything like this at Costco and was there less than a week ago.
Good luck- I wouldn't mind finding some for a bit less $$.

So I went to Walmart tonight to stock up on school snacks, etc. The same walmart that I called 2 times asking if they had large totes. With a response of "no, we are out". So I decided to look for myself. I found 50 gal totes with wheels. Are these the ones everyone is talking about? Well, I bought 2 anyway for $12.83 ea.

 

[egyptiandan]

Walmart was right they were out. These are bigger than the 50 gal. size Dee. They are 51 inches long and 21 inches wide and I think 14 inches high.
They will still come in handy Dee, when you get more tortoises.
Oh I did buy 4 at regular price at first. The first was four years ago and I paid $20 for that one, then I bought 3 for $25 two years ago.

I got the one on wheels with the red top... These ones I guess aren't the ones you are talking about, Danny! I hope I can find some as big as the ones you saw! These ones on wheels are about 4 feet long and maybe 18 inches wide. I've got mine in use, they are roomy enough for smaller sweeties!

I would bet money that if you asked if they had 'large totes', the mind warrior on the other end of the phone thought you meant the shoes
At our walmart I could ask if they carried toilet paper and they would say no...they have taken the 'just say no' thing too far

Glad you got one at such an awesome price too

 

[jlyoncc1]

Figures, I thought this one didn't seem big enough. I guess I just might have to use one to actually organize something! LOL

I have found a very nice selection of rubber maid tubs at target. I am not sure if they are tree bins but very close.i got a nice sized one for 14$.
