***buckmr2*** by buying the baked beans all ready in plastic tubs, means that you can ***for example** use 250g to do a beans on toast, then put the rest in the fridge.
You can't do that with a tin, as is with out consequences.
The plastic tubs when washed out have many uses. I don't drink coffee or use sugar, so one on my window sill for tea bags is perfectly good. Others here, I don't doubt could offer other uses

Oo-er, consequences. Generations have kept, and keep part used tins in the fridge. If you are really worried you can get reusable snap on lids for tins.

I know its a bit 'left field'.....

Just had beans on toast this morning out of a tin and put what was left in the tin in the fridge, without "consequences" as have millions of others before and since resealable bags came along.

Bargain. Very good price and the containers once empty are very useful. Hot

***buckmr2*** If I have to give you some education/ impart some maturity & wisdom.
As gollywood says he put the remains of his in an airtight container. A grand idea
As per above the plastic containers do not cause the food content to go off as quick as the open to the air & moisture tin.
The easy thing to do is tip some from the tin in to a plastic container and put a lid on top, and put them beside the ones in the open tin on the same fridge shelf.
You can then see for your self what the difference is. It might take up to 7 days to see any thing happen

Probably a good price for resealable but Poundland do 4x300g (1.2kg) of Heinz Beans http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/heinz-beans-300g-4-for-1-poundland-2360084#comments
or 3 x 415g HP Beans (1.245kg)
http://www.poundland.co.uk/hp-baked-beans-415g for £1.00
To me paying extra for resealable given you can buy more manageable size tins is like paying extra for pre-grated cheese or prepacked sliced veg etc.
