I decided to take it back to my local lowes and when I was there checked around just to make sure I didnt get one without an eggcrate. I found one left but it was a different package and came with everything everyone has been talking about. It also seems to be made much better
Just thought I would let everyone know | Actually, as far as I can tell Task Force is a brand and there were a lot of tool boxes with that brand. But only one that looked like this as far as I could tell. |

They even had the same item number... I guess maybe older model or something?
Here is a picture of my set-up. I need to try and find racks with lids for my over sized chips.

The first one I got was slightly different and didnt come with the eggcrate. The box just slide out of the side of the packaging and the other one (the good one) comes in closed packaging.

It had foam for as shown above but not what I would call eggcrate foam. Just sheet as big as the interior where you could punch out specific sections.
