And inside the box is a CD (I assume of the program with the 7,462 link) and an opportunity to have AOL free for 1,045 hours You get an instruction card on how to open your CD Rom and another one with your secret magic registration and password so you can sign up a friend You even get a phone number that will help you set up this free gift. Isn’t this wonderful?

Now as soon as you throw all that CRAP in the trash you have a neat tin box. It’s 5” x 5-1/2” and 3/8” deep. What do you do with all your AOL tins? Do you keep tiny things that you may want to sort in it? It’ll hold a few band-aids and fit nicely in glove box or the bottom of a tool box without displacing a lot of valuable space. It could hold a variety of colored condoms for easy selection.

Tell us what you do with your box ladies.

I don't get AOL Cd's so I must not be special enough but I do use altoid tins to hold my ID and money when I go clubbing. The mini altoid tins are perfect for holding any medication you may need to take during the day instead of carrying around a pill bottle.

Here in Canada we don't get the tin, either. There are some wonderful people in Cali who want you to mail them the CDs so they can mail 1,000,000 of 'em to AOL

And a pic of all the CDs

I love these guys!! They're storing them in their garage! And the Web site has a count down for how many they have left to go, kinda like our 1,000,000 thread.

I used to pick up a handful of them at Target and then use the CD's as cheap coasters in my apartment at school
Never have gotten anything in a tin...must just be for current subscribers.

PF, I do a lot of things w/my box, but storing Q-tips or change or Band-Aids in it or using it as a coaster is not one of them. Once in a while, though, I DO fill it w/condoms.
