Abstract: An apparatus includes a container, for example a see-through container, that is sized so that multiple cards having written content on the cards are placeable within the container. The content on the cards may all relate to a particular theme. The apparatus also has a lid for the container. The container lid has a novelty item attached to an underside of the lid such that when the lid is in a closed position with respect to the container, the novelty item extends from the underside of the lid and into the container. The novelty item, in one example, may be removable from the lid so that it may be placed within the container.
