If you are going to use to stack, then you might consider a surplus ammo can.

A small flat rate box holds $50 nicely.

If you only need 2 or 3, try going to a bank and buy a box on nickels. Even with no account a fair number of banks will sell you a box anyways if you ask nicely. That's if they even ask if you have an account.

Some banks might even have empty boxes they will be happy to give you.

If you put the word in soon, I'm sure your bank that you frequent would save the boxes as they open them and disperse individual rolls to customers.

i usually just ask the tellers if they have any empty boxes in the back... and they give me that weird look and hand them over to me.

The only problem I have is with the quarter boxes, which they always seem to rip open.
