The square container on the very top is not that old either. It's a freezer container from the late 90s, I think

I think if you are camping and make coffee that is just grounds and water in a pot ("camp coffee") and throw in some eggshell, the coffee grounds will sink to the bottom of the pot.
That's the boring answer

I had a broken thermometer safely stored in Tupperware and (super safely!) wrapped in a bread bag in my garage for three years.
Every so often Iβd google how to dispose of it. I called places on lists and they had no idea what I was talking about.
Eventually I just threw it away. I decided it was safer than forgetting about it and someone accidentally exposing themselves.

Yup we had to throw out a bunch of Tupperware from the 80s for that reason, you could actually feel it starting to decompose. Not BIFL at all unfortunately.

I keep all that on a shelf in the garage next to my lawn darts set.

Only if you're trying to pull a fast one to obtain those awesome pitchers for yourself, otherwise no.

Iβve always have a dry time with my Fulton. I find my Blunt collapses on itself from time to time as it doesnβt have a great latch to keep it open. Fulton

You can find a lot of lightly used shoes on eBay, it may be an option to find a pair like your old ones

The truly shocking thing here is that you have all the lids. My whole life has been a cupboard of containers with missing lids and lids that do not fit any container.

Camp Coffee (or Cowboy Coffee) is made over the campfire or a gas camp stove with a pitcher. You put the water and the coffee grounds in together and bring it to a boil for about 4-5 minutes or a rolling boil. You then add either cold water or eggshells to collect the grounds and have them settle to the bottom before pouring.
