Once you have a bulk load of them take them to your nearest carboot sale. Seriously, it will take you a couple of minutes for someone to take them off your hands. Carbooters use them to display brick-a-brack as well as store their items whilst they are travelling etc.

5 litre tubs would be excellent for small items like toys and needlework stuff. I am sure there are lots of community centres and children’s shelters that would love to have them for sorting and storing toys, art equipment, craft equipment, needlework and baking stuff etc. Animal shelters would probably also like some to store pet food in. Not all pet food bags are resealable.
You could also create an inexpensive shelving and storage system with them, as an alternative to buying new chests of drawers. Just label each tub and arrange them on shelves or inside kitchen cabinets.
