I'm currently storing refilled cartomizers in three plastic, magnetic boxes (each holds 8 cartomizers with the condoms on them) that I bought from Walmart last night for $3.88. These little containers will be real handy to carry in my jacket pocket when I go somewhere (instead of using a sandwich baggy, like I used to). After I took the picture below, I stuck the three little containers onto my metal stereo receiver that's next to my desk. Love the magnets on the bottom of the boxes.
Here is a picture of them:

what section where they in, in the store. what are there actual function? Very good, that's what i need. Awesome. Are you using a ego style with cartomizers? if so how is it obviously i have a similar one.
In the Office Supplies section. That section in the Walmart closest to me has several aisles now, compared to what they used to have. It's about one or two aisles over from the wrapping and bubble supplies. The three containers are packaged with cardboard on the back and it was hanging on a hook.
Their actual function is to hold paper clips and small supplies on your desk or in a drawer. Each container is 1 7/8" x 1 7/8" x 1 1/4" deep, and each has a magnet on the back. I have them hanging on my stereo receiver next to my desk, within reach.
Yes, I use eGo batteries (listed in my signature) and cartomizers (Boge 510 and KR808D-1 cartos). They work fine, and I prefer them over using an atomizer and cartridge. However, I will drip using just an atomizer and drip tip (for a mouthpiece only) now and then.
Yes, I love them, too! I really needed something to put them in (besides a sandwich baggie) when going somewhere. These little plastic boxes will work perfectly for that.
I'm even using them at my desk to hold refilled cartomizers. I plan on buying more, since I have more cartomizers that are in this piece of wood that I drilled holes into to hold cartos. Now my cartos are out of the way, off my desk, and hanging on my stereo receiver. They're worth $3.88 for a set of 3!

Thats the set up i want! Do the Kr808 cartos just screw on or do you need and adapter? and why Kr's? what is that pass through your using? thanks for answering all the questions it can be confusing getting started.
Thanks for your comments, mrp! I couldn't be happier (at this time) with my current setup.
The KR808D-1 cartos do screw on, but you will need a 510-battery to 808/901-atomizer adapter in order to use them with 510 and eGo batteries. I bought my adapters from goodprophets.com (they ship from PA) for 99 cents each, and that's the cheapest price I know of (for adapters and drip tips). The adapters work very well, and the only thing I had to do was use a small screwdriver to turn the slot on the round adapter connector counterclockwise two full turns to lift the round connecter out enough to make a better connection with the round connector on my eGo batteries.
KR808D-1 cartos tend to produce more flavor and vapor than the Boge 510 cartos, so that's why I decided to switch to them. I'm still using both Boge and KR808 cartos, but when I placed a recent order for more cartos, I only ordered KR808D-1s (from litecigusa.net).
I have seven passthroughs that I bought during my first month as a vaper, thinking they would be handy to have at the computer, but then I found out that passthroughs can be used anywhere that has a wall plug available -- and it's not a good idea to plug passthroughs into a computer USB port, because the amp output from the motherboard is not enough to power passthroughs effectively, so I bought five 2amp AC to USB wall adapters at madvapes.com. I have passthroughs plugged in at my bed, my bedroom desk, my office desk, and in my car (using a 2amp Car to USB adapter from madvapes.com).
Since I bought all of this stuff, I've discovered that I'd rather use eGo batteries to vape, instead of the passthroughs, so I rarely use the passthroughs anymore. And that's why I've been buying more eGo spare batteries lately. The performance of the eGo battery is much better than the performance of any passthrough I've tried (have tried three different brands). The passthroughs output 5 volts, which was causing more mouth pain when using them due to more heat hitting the inside of my mouth, as compared to the 3.2 volt eGo batteries.
Sorry i totally forgot about his thread that last post is great. I'm looking at ego passthroughs so i can vape and charge at the same time while giving my t-rex a rest from the day and have a third battery. I did buy some 510 cartos LR and standard and like them but hey do seem to burn up juice quick. While I dont vape all day long i find myself topping off the carto often when not working and at least once a day. I might look into trying a few KR cartos for comparison. goodprophets and litecigusa is who you like? I dont like the hot throat hit either, I get that from the LR cartos maybe not used to them.
I wish I would have seen this BEFORE going to WalMart today. 
I'll have to add it to my list of things to pick up next time I'm there. (not until next week, I am avoiding the black friday crazies)

I was at Walmart but have never seen these wonderful little boxes.
I've been looking for something similar.
What department / area did you find these boxes?
Thanks
I just got one of these today at Bi-Mart. MTM RS-100 Rifle Ammo Box .17 to .222 Magnum Green RS-100-10. RS-100-10. MTM Shooting Accessories.
Fits carts, cartos, attys (need a cart on the tip or they go down too far), regular 510 batts.

At my Walmart, they're in the office supplies section near the little colored labels. They sell these to hold paper clips, tacks, etc. Wrapping supplies are an aisle over, if that helps find them. My Walmart recently added a lot more office supplies, but I have no idea if all Walmarts did this or not. I love these little magnetic boxes!
Just litecigusa.net (Premium KR808D-1 cartos). I had to return the 11 boxes of GP808D-1 cartos I bought from goodprophets, since 4 out of the first 7 cartos I filled had a burnt taste. There was something defective about them, so I'll keep buying from litecigusa.net.
I understand why the eGo USB is popular, but it makes more sense to me to pay a lower amount for an extra eGo 900mAh battery (or two or three) and NOT have to mess around with USB cables. That's what I did (have 9 eGo batteries), and I no longer have all those USB cables all over the place (also quit using the seven passthroughs I have, because the extra warm vapor from the 5 volts was burning the inside of my mouth, throat, and chest).

Guess I'll be shopping at Wal-Mart today.
I ran right to Walmart and bought these when I first saw deback recommend it and I can vouch that it is indeed an awesome way to store cartos. Fits right into a pocket or purse and off you go, with as many flavors as you like! LOVE these!

Take it from a Wal-mart employee who is working Thursday night/Friday morning Blitz: go tomorrow. Mid-day is best, though the place will be practically a graveyard all day. The best way to avoid dealing with the Black Friday crowd is to get there before 6pm. Most of the time, the people who are going to be showing up and standing in line arrive around 7 or 8 in the evening. Many Wal-marts have sectioned off areas to deal with the nut cases and basket cases that will be arriving for the insane deals. They tend to have taped down marks on the floor for those areas.
Remember, while Black Friday is a one-time event, after that the place is going to be crazy-stupid for the next month or so.
