Pottery Barn has a small corrugated steel vessel for just $1.99 with free fast shipping.
(It possibly costs PB more than that in shipping/handling costs.) Final sale, no returns.

Made of mild steel.
Features a powder coated finish.
Color and pattern may vary due to the unique galvanized finish.
For $1.99, there’s probably some creative way to use this – vase, coin holder, paper clip holder, ???
I realize this deal’s rather obscure; hope it helps someone.
