Well, it looks like I want a few Sterilite 1806s (http://www.sterilite.com/Category.html?Section=Storage&ProductCategory=44) to store my miscellaneous gaming stuff, like controllers and random carts. However, a Google search for the things turns up next to nothing in the way of sellers, and obvious places like Walmart.com and Target.com don't seem to have them. Any tips on where to find them? Just get lucky at a brick'n'mortar store?

Those are exactly what I'm using for my extra parts and controllers. I have 6 of them, and I'm pretty sure I bought them at Wal-Mart about 3 years ago. Maybe check your local store.

Didn't see listings for Office Depot, Office Max, Bed Bath & Beyond, or Linens 'n Things who may carry those units.

Maybe Home Depot in the closet/storage fixtures area?

I've got a few of those around the house (the wife's uses them for her scrapbook stuff). I think we got them at Wal-Mart a few years back, but that's no guarantee that they still carry `em.

I actually have 4 of these stacked in a closet. I never thought about putting games in them. I have white worms that I raise to feed my fish in them.

Yes, I know I'm a dork.

I saw something like those stackable drawers while I was at Target over the weekend.

Thanks for the anecdotes so far.

I thought I'd mention that I wrote my latest "Pixel" column on GameSpy about game storage, which is sort of related to all this.

Hopefully I'll find my Sterilites soon ... I'm sick of these beyond messy boxes!
