Home Depot has the best lids, there avg. black lids with a seal are like $2 , easy to open and seal and the Gamma lids are very nice and like $8 hard to put on but seals way better and will probably hold up better after alot of usage.
Red Dawn on 6103 SE 15 MWC had recycled food containers for $1.50 ea with the original lids, They need washing, but what the heck at that price I can wash them. Call 405-732-0717 and check, I do not think they are open on Saturdays. They also have classes on long term storage and other aspects of survival.
Atwoods has 5 gallon buckets and lids.
I like their lids, they are black and a bit more flexible then the ones at Lowes.
I have 2 buckets with lids that have been outside in the sun for over a year, and no weather checking or cracking.

Great tip! One of my bigger fears is that all the food I have will be lost in the event of a house fire. I want to construct a root cellar, but in the meantime, does anyone have any good ideas for burying these containers?
remember where you buried them!
I have some 1 & 4 gal. cake/donut icing buckets for sale. Perfect for food prepping/storage. Lids have plastic seals. Haven't been used since they've been emptied. Washed & cleaned; still have original product sticker on side. I'll beat loox
