the body including a cover portion for covering the container opening when positioned on the container and a skirt depending downwardly from the cover portion, wherein the skirt is sized and positioned on the body to fit inside the container opening, wherein the side portion of the frame at least substantially surrounds the body when the frame is retained on the lip in the engaging position; and

a gasket positioned between the lid and the lip, with each retaining arm in the engaging position the gasket contacts the sealing portion of the lip and maintains a substantially liquid tight seal on the container;

wherein the body includes at least two movable locking arms each configured to engage the lip;

wherein the frame is configured to be displaced downwardly to contact each locking arm to move each locking arm inwardly to engage the lip.

2. The container system of claim 1 , wherein the frame is separable from the body.

3. The container system of claim 1 , wherein the frame is generally rectangular, wherein the at least two retaining arms include first and second retaining arms disposed on a same side of the frame, wherein the frame includes a release handle adjacent the at least two retaining arms, wherein the release handle is used to manipulate the at least two retaining arms, wherein the release handle is configured to be pulled outwardly, away from the container, to pull the retaining arm away from the container to disengage the retaining arm to allow for removal of the lid.

4. The container system of claim 3 , wherein the release handle is disposed between the first retaining arm and the second retaining arm.

5. The container system of claim 4 , wherein the release handle is formed by the side portion of the frame.

6. The container system of claim 1 , wherein the frame is generally polygonal, wherein the at least two retaining arms includes first and second retaining arms disposed on a first side of the frame and third and fourth retaining arms disposed on a second side, which is opposite the first side, of the frame, wherein the frame includes a first release handle disposed between the first and second retaining arms and a second release handle disposed between the third and fourth retaining arms.

7. The container system of claim 1 , wherein the skirt is a wall offset from a peripheral edge of the body generally following and parallel to the peripheral edge.

8. The container system of claim 1 , wherein the lip protrudes outwardly from the wall and the sealing portion is a top of the lip and the engaging portion is a lower portion of the lip.

9. The container system of claim 1 , wherein the at least two retaining arms includes first and second retaining arms on opposite sides of the frame and the at least two locking arms includes first and second locking arms on opposite sides of the body.

10. The container system of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the at least two retaining arms contacts the lip on a first side of the container that is generally perpendicular to a second side of the container, wherein at least one of the at least two locking arms engages the lip on the second side of the container.

11. The container system of claim 10 , wherein the first side of the container is adjacent the second side of the container.
