Nope, I am a cheap bastard and just use the gallon can with the bell cut out of it for my work pot.

Wooster Pelican
We use them whenever a mini roller is needed. Strong magnet for holding a brush in place. Our go-to cut pot for exteriors. Lowe's no longer sells them. Order on line.
While on the Wooster topic - their Dust Eater drywall cleaning tool is the most powerful duster we've used.

Started using them on an interior this week and liking them so far as a cut container for walls/trim. Few nice features, I noticed today that they can hurt the wrist a bit.
Think I will stick to empty singles for primers/exteriors/ladder work.

Here's a post that pertains to this question
What do you use to paint out of?
First Margarine container then tuperware containers then Handy painter pail. So here I am pie in the sky got this new Painter Pail that does just about everything for me. All I have to do is paint. I did like how it holds your brush. Long story short now I most likely use the Pelican..I think it is a neat name it does look like a pelican
