Lock & Lock airtight storage

Aldi have storage boxes (for things like biscuits) for 1.75. They are clearly modelled on the fab Lock & Lock airtight boxes, as they are called "Lock and save". Does anyone know if they are 100% airtight? I hope so, as i have just bought 4, saving a wad of money.

    Lock and Lock storage are certainly very good but also expensive. So I was very pleased and surprised when i went into Morrisons last week and found their version but alot cheaper and on BOGOF ,they had all sizes as well so an incredible saving. Small boxes were only £1.99 and with BOGOF they are very cheap . The Morrisons are 100% waterproof so hopefully the Aldi ones are as well.

    Sounds good.

    We got some lock and lock from QVC outlet - whole kit of at least 20+ pieces for £12.

    We bought a few at Tesco.

    Despite their saying that they were dishwasher and freezer safe within a year all had split in the freezer :(

    I'm sticking with the more expensive ones from now on.

    I got some from Poundstretcher. I think it was £4-5 for one big tub and two small ones. They are great.

    Morning all, I have quite a lot of lock and lock containers and can highly recomend them. I snap them up in an order for todays special value on QVC.
    I had a new pile delivered last week - a large box full - I payed approx £30 delivered. My top recomendations for their use is for cold meats and cheese in the fridge, but the boxes are in use all over the house. I think theese will replace Tupperware as the new future storage boxes.Cheeper boxes are not the same! Best Wishes...
    If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
