Well, you wouldn't be the first. They're pretty cheap - about a grand apiece, I think.
There's some cool applications on the Web. |

Different people have different definitions of cheap. The containers on ships are called Sea Containers. Most of the cargo ports in the US sell used sea containers for $1000 to $5000 depending on size and condition.
The only place I have seen them where I consider them cheap is at construction equipment auctions. Sometimes you can get them there for $400-$1000. |

depends where your based, if in the UK go to a seaport where containers are stored, your be able to pick one up for around a grand, or maybe cheaper.
