a container base; first and second container walls extending from opposing sides of the container base; a rim disposed about the first and second container walls opposite the container base;
where the container base and the first and second container walls at least partially defining a storage volume having a container opening for receiving an article for storage within the volume, the rim surrounds said container opening, and the first and second container walls extending outwardly toward the rim tapering from the rim toward the base, a first interlocking member forming a recess within the first container wall extending between the base and the rim; a second interlocking member forming a protrusion extending from the at least a second container wall between the base and the rim;
wherein the first interlocking member is configured to substantially interlock with the second interlocking member for connecting the container in juxtaposed relation to a second container having the same arrangement of first and second interlocking members with the container base of the container being co-planar with the rim of the second container, a third interlocking member forming a recess within the first container wall extending between the base and the rim; and a fourth interlocking member forming a protrusion extending from the at least a second container wall between the base and the rim;
wherein the third interlocking member is configured to substantially interlock with the fourth interlocking member for connecting the container in juxtaposed relation to the second container having the same arrangement of third and fourth interlocking members with the container base of the container being co-planar with the rim of the second container,where, the first and second interlocking members are equidistant from, in opposite directions, an axis through the middle of the a first and the at least a second container walls, and where the third and the fourth interlocking members are equidistant from, in opposite directions, the axis;where the first and third interlocking members extend from the rim toward the container base and the second and fourth interlocking members extend from a container wall adjacent the container base toward the rim; andwhere the first and third interlocking members are integrally fashioned into the container walls. |
