I had just bought some Rubbermaid type containers from wal mart. The closest I could find was something opaque. I'm looking for something clear, but not too big, and reasonably priced. Ant suggestions are much appreciated.

If you are a fan of tupperware type containers, rubbermaid makes their "Brilliance" line which is very clear, but also kinda of pricey, coming in at about $13-14 for the bigger containers. The container store also offers up many different shapes and sizes. Links below.

Look for acrylic containers.
