Since Ailene Asked...

Here are some of the Tupperware products I love and can't imagine my kitchen without.
FridgeSmarts

These may not look like much, but they keep vegetables fresh for an absurdly long time. I have carrot sticks and cut celery in one in my fridge. They've been in there since the begining of December and they still crunch. I also especially love them for lettuce and other leafy things. The large one fits about 3 Romaine hearts. Anyone who finds lettuce turned to slime in the "crisper" drawer should invest in these-they will save you money!
The little vents on the end are how it works. Different veggies need different airflow. They produce gases as they sit, and if they aren't ventilated properly, they begin to break down. The vents keep the gases from building up and slow the break-down process. Each fridge smart (except the smallest) comes with a chart printed on the side to tell you how much ventilation your specific fruit or veggie needs.

Modular Mates (40% off this month!)

These are wonderful for organizing you pantry or cupboards! They all fit together in a "modular" system to save wasted space. The set in the picture is actually 50% off this month. All the others are 40%.

Rock 'n' Serve (25% off through Feb.)

These are frezer safe and microwave safe. They are great for leftovers or freezing food ahead of time. You can cook lasagne in the microwave in the large deep. I use them when I have more meat than I need. I just cook it all and store the leftover in the freezer. When I need it, it's already cooked.
You can check the prices on the Tuperware site. Let me know if you want anything!

Wow... those veggie crisp thingies sound really neat!!! The other thing is it'd keep all my veggies in one place... since my fridge is a disorganized mess!

Hmm... hmmm... hmmm! I'll have to refer back to this post when I have some extra money to spend! The extra money to spend for the next couple of months is going towards baby showers... :O!

Thanks for sharing your must haves! I like them a lot! It helps when someone tells me their favorite things... if I just go to a website, I get overwhelmed and can't decide what I want! :)

yes, those are my 3 favorites! I use my fridgesmarts for everything- they are great for cheese as well. I got mine before they put the chart on them. All my favorite rock n- serves are broken- like the empty flat rectangular one- :( but I still use them because I love them so much!
