There is the vacuum pump, which works somewhat depending on whom you ask.
Myself, I find it helps keep wine for a few days but not much longer. In
any case, I find that I don't mind pouring out half a bottle of Charles Shaw
and just opening another if I need to. At $38 per case it's not a big deal.

If you have Costco, they now carry a "premium" boxed wine. I picked up a
Chardonnay to give it a try. It was about $18 for the 3-litre box. I found
it to be equivalent to any $10 bottle. They carry a Shiraz too. I can't
recall the name, but it was Aussie.
