Where to find FTC crates?

Does anyone know where to find the plastic crates used in this year's FTC Bowled Over game? AndyMark sells the racket balls but not the crates. In order to build our robot properly we really need to get our hands on the exact crates used in the competition. Any help would be appreciated.

The crates are Sterlite brand (I think) and can be found at any Walmart.

Item F-1 on the Game Field Bill of Materials lists the official translucent version with the only difference between them and those available at your favorite home storage retailer is color. The referees and crowd will appreciate the ability to see balls in crates while a team practice crate can be the color closest to your team colors if available.

Bowled Over BOM

This is a crate sold to store DVDs if that helps you find it in stores near you.

FIRST has an impact on Amazon. At least 75% of the "Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought" are FIRST related. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...pf_rd_i=507846
