You can cut a milk jug, bleach bottle or juice bottle with a handle into a scoop. You can find directions online. -
All these individual-sized containers drive me batty; having said that, sometimes there's no other option. For instance Crystal Light/store brand versions. I have used them for an impromptu eyeglass case, bobbypins, jewelry...whatever! Decorate them with scrapbooking paper.

I use plastic containers (the kind used fo cold cuts) all the time - I'll cook extra hamburger, and store it in the freezer or frig - meat is already cooked for tacos or other dishes - also, use them for left over cooked chicken for other dishes during the week - saves a cooking step and recycling plastic container, too. -
The plastic butter containers are very useful to store leftovers.

I always reuse those lunch meat containers for my leftovers. They are the perfect size.
