Good point about the saw blades, the hack blades were just what I had lying around, and I was very suprised at how easy it was to break and fit in the tin. I figured the blade would need to be bent a few times before it broke, but instead it just snapped in half.

Also, even if you can't eat the candies, $2 for a fairly secure tin isn't that bad of a deal. Most things are made out of plastic or paper nowadays anyways. I still remember my mom bringing home the groceries and she'd have that nice big tin containing the saltine crackers!
