Empty test strip containers

Xinfuda have been trying to find small testing items to put together a "pack" he can carry in his pocket, so he doesn't have to carry a backpack all the time. Just something he can use when he is going out for the afternoon, evening, etc. Checked with our endo, and she really doesn't like the non name brand meters, so we have the one touch mini, and the Delica lancing device. Now - how to carry strips in a small container. I have been trying to find a container other than a plastic bag and I think I may have come up with something. Tell me what you think!

There is a natural flu medication called Occillococcinum that comes in a little tube. Each dose consists of pellets that dissolve in your mouth. I saw an empty test strip container tube sitting on my counter and said "oh my gosh - I think some test strips will fit in there!" Here is a photo for the item you can see what the tube looks like.

The thing that would worry me with putting strips into a different container is moisture. I would probably feel comfortable using these tubes without leaving the strips in for days at a time.
