Default SU milk carton die

Can anyone tell me the measurements of the completed milk carton? I am thinking about getting this one-it's so cute! Thanks!

I don't know because I don't have it. But I have a link to a milk carton template. And it's available in a PDF format or a SVG format (which can be cut with SCAL software). Here is the link:

It's pretty tiny...I'll go measure one...but the ones I made just barely fit like 6 Hershey's Kisses in them...cute but kinda small for anything other than candies, and really too small to decorate with more than a bit of ribbon and a small tag, if that.

I am on the hunt for a larger basic box-style die for bigger things, but for the money, I might as well buy ready-made boxes for as often as I need them.

It's about 2.5 inches wide and about 4.5 high. Of course about the top inch is the pinched in part. It is small but its cute! Have you seen the birdhouses, cottages, outhouses, and dog houses being made with them? Tooo cute. I need to play with mine more!

The finished one is 1.5" square on the bottom and 2" tall at the widest area, overall it is about 2.75" tall when folded up.

That's been a complaint since they first started having the dies in the catalog. For non-SU exclusive ones, Sizzix has had in the past, finished sizes. Not sure if the Sizzix site has anything for SU-exclusives now. Even when I was a demonstrator and I'd call SU for the info because it wasn't even listed in the demo-only product guide, but no one that I spoke to at SU could even give me the finished dimensions. Do they honestly expect each and every demo to purchase everything just so they can provide their own customers with the correct information?!
