I'm in North Phoenix, and could really use some milk crates to use for shelving. Anyone know where I can get some? Preferably the rectangular type(the kind that hold six Gallons of milk).

You must not have tried that hard:

MILK CRATES set of 6 (http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/for/2684924869.html - broken link)

You can just drive around behind grocery stores and take them, if they left them out then it's their problem for not securing them properly.

Why would you leave stuff outside if you didn't want it to be stolen? Half the time they're there for people to take anyway.

If you leave your keys in your ignition and leave your doors unlocked, and you car gets stolen, who could you blame but yourself?

I was going to suggest the same thing. That is the traditional way of getting them. I would like to get my hands on more of those metal Shamrock ones, but I think everything today is plastic.

You do see the flaw in that logic, right? By that reasoning, car thieves should be exonerated if the cars they stole had keys in the ignition.

I suggest the o/p stick with Craigs List and similar legal avenues of acquisition.
