    I might have a little too much "tradition of Britain" tinboxes (3 double decker buses, 3 phone cabins, one mail box, one Big Ben) but all of them are different, so, I decided to eventually post them all.
    This phone cabin is a money box and I store my coins on it. It used to contain black tea in tea bags ("New english teas" is the brand). It was a gift from my boyfriend, in 2012 I think. The other one is just a box, I don't know if it contained candy or something, it belonged to my boyfriend and he gave it to me also in 2012, when I told him I collected tin boxes. This one is from the '90.
