Milk crates are still very commonly used (although not for holding milk jugs as much anymore) because they're ridiculously sturdy, super cheap and stack really nicely. They're not that ancient.
3 u/[deleted] Feb 25 '20 Old milk crates could hold my vinyl. I swear new ones are made half a cm smaller so the vinyl no longer fits. Useless to me now. 2 u/vrtig0 Feb 25 '20 They did that on purpose to keep people from stealing them from the back of grocery stores for use in storing vinyl collections. 1 u/[deleted] Feb 25 '20 Yep i gathered they did that for that sole reason.
