Default Holiday baking - Packaging on the Cheap?

In article ,
says...
I plan to do my holiday baking this year for friends around the
country that I will not be able to see during the holidays, as I do
every year.

This year, however, money is tighter than usual, and I'm finding that
buying tins to send to each person is a little pricey, especially when
the size I get (usually 9" x 9" x 2.5") is usually $3-ish, and I send
out roughly 10-20 of these.

Are there any suggestions on festive, inexpensive packaging for
cookies/brownies? I use the Priority mail packaging, which is 12.125"
x 13.375" x 2.75" - so the limiting factor here is height. I can sew
and craft, but if someone knows a pre-fab idea I'm up for that too.
(Yay timesaving.)

TIA for suggestions.

Happy Holi-daze,
Sara

How about using Chinese takeout containers? You could probably buy a
bunch from your local Chinese restaurant for not too much money and
decorate them with rubber stamps, stickers, ribbons, fabric, etc.
