OT: Organization
Stopped at Hobby Lobby and found this cool storage case (probably could get them at any store, LOL) Sat down today to see if it worked. Here's the results:
the lid...
nice snap tight closures...
inside view...
outside view...
I really like these cases.
Fits over the number of cards a two-row box fits.
Holds graded cards standing up.
Not as bulky to pick up and carry.
Can see my cards from the outside....WooHoo
LMK what ya think

A little more salty than a two-row box but I feel they'll stand up to time and climate changes better.
$6.99 where I got them but you probably could find them for less.

I ran out of two-rows so was in the market for something different. Now I have a two-row for my commons, LOL.
I'll check on different sizes for ya Jeffie

I don't think they interlock but the bottom of the container is formed to fit the lid. So they should stack nicely

Sweet, even better. I may just have to pick up some of those, nearly the same price as a box and it is water proof. You never know! Thanks T!

I'd start with one to make sure it holds your cards the way you like
That's what I did and I like it so I may get a few more
