Plastic sandwich box, drill/cut suitably sized hole in lid, pack with moss!
Good thing is, there are so many sized sandwich boxes out there, you are bouond to find the perfect size.

As above, pop to tescos or somewhere similar.. you will find a good sized tub for cheap and it can be used over and over!

The last lot of moss I bought was from Aldi's, but you'll be able to pick it up from any rep shop.
If you are using a plastic box as a moist hide, it holds the moisture well enough, but if it does start to dry out, give it a light spray with cooled boiled water.
