I have tried to find a small silver tin to do like a kit with some pills for our guests: pepto, alka-seltzer, advil with an inside note that says ... " so yo dont regret coming" in spanish: " para que no se arrepientan de haber venido" and we will place those in a basket on the entrance table or something... but I was looking a tin with a doctors bag or or like the first aid sign ( cross) like engraved or marked and I cant find any... if you see one please let me know

thanks!

Do they need to have little seperate compartments or just one big one?
Would something like a mint/favour tin from Michaels do the trick? You could buy the plain/simple ones & either print up custom stickers or even find some medical looking stickers?

What a cute idea! Yeah you may be better off trying to find one made for mints because the pill ones can get pricey. At least the mint ones come in a more bulk style.

that's a good idea or what about something like this and setting it up like you would a Candy Bar with each tin filled w/ diff types of meds. You can stick a red cross on it. Do they sell little cans/bottles of Clamato in Mx? It would be cute to add those too, lol.

Altoid and palm sized hinged tins
or these...just do a search on metal tin and there are lots of options
