Gotta hope they have the no rain checks clause in their catalog, otherwise there could be a lot of new caches all of a sudden

Slightly off topic but has anyone in SA seen Lock & Lock around lately??

I was just in Thailand and the range of Lock&Lock was amazing!!

i have never seen a lock and lock box in a shop, only in its native habitat (under rocks and at the base of trees)

They used to be common in NZ (home of Sistema) a few years ago but they suddenly disappeared.
I bought a boxful of them via the local eBay equivalent (trademe.co.nz) and still have one or two left.

Apart from ammo cans and the PVC pipe containers, I've still to find a more waterproof container.

Big-W used to have some good clip top containers, Prestige/Biokips, but not any more.

I find Sistema containers a bit disappointing, they're a good price and have a good range of sizes, but they don't seal as well as I expect a container with a rubber seal and clip down lid to seal and unless put in a sheltered spot the cache ends up wet.
