Stack in Jacks
I was just looking for one of these plastic containers, the sturdy type that are open topped and stack one way around, and when turned around fit into each other for easy storage and got no results back. I'm starting to think that "stack in jacks" might just be something we called them in our family? What the hell are they really called?

I did however amuse my mother immensly a few years back. I had a complet memory fail on the word 'flip-flops' and couldn't remember if it was a real word, or just one of these family-coined phrases. She was also really tickled that I used the word 'runabout' to describe a tiny space-vessel on star trek. She was dissapointed to discover it wasn't a cute word her 12-year old had made up, but actually a real term.
And no, I've never heard of "stack in jacks", "stackin' jacks" or "stacking jacks" before. I had a few small ones though when I was young.
