I have enjoyed having the 4 lb Domino sugar round yellow containers. They
hold enough for sugar, brown sugar, conf. sugar and also there's one here
for powdered cheese. The lids fit snugly and they are easy to pick up
securely. Mine are tastefully labeled via a fat black pen. I honestly don't
know if they were 'free' as compared to a sack of sugar but close enough.
