They have a sale until the end of the month for their "Bunker Hill" brand cans. These are the small plastic ones that are regular priced at $7, not the .50 cal metal cans that are twice that. Sale is $3 a can with a limit of 5, so I bought some today cuz I'm in need of some for organization purposes.
My thoughts are if it weren't for the sale, these would not be worth buying at full price. Even with the 20% off coupon, they're not worth nearly $6 when adding in sales tax and the reason is they're very small. If you're familiar with the Plano cans that are under $10, the ones that ammo companies will buy and put their brand name on and sell bulk ammo in like Winchester...

The Harbor Freight cans are not the same size, they're even smaller and they won't stack on the Plano cans. I'll post a pic if I get the time to show the difference in size.
Also, these HF cans don't stack as sturdy as the Plano ones do. I've got all mine stacked fine, but I wouldn't make them any higher than 5. The Plano cans I'm confident enough I could stack them 10 high or even up to the ceiling and they'd be fine.
The one positive about them is because they're small, if you have small spaces where you can put two or three stacked that a Plano or MTM can can't fit, these probably will fit; they have a small footprint. So, at $3, damn fine for the money, but if I wasn't in need of them and could wait, I would have ordered a different brand.
