You can never have enough...

I found those softer plastic carry tubs make really good planters, especially if you can add a few chunks of polystyrene to the base before filling for drainage. They are easy to puncture to add holes and come in some lovely mad colours, so I can go quiet or loud depending on what I put in them. Surprisingly, they seem to be uv stable too and don't get brittle after a few years outside, not something we can say about some plastics. I have even used one as a garden edging by cutting it up into strips so I could keep a mulch where it should be despite the determined efforts of my favourite blackbird...
