Default Great tip from Sheldon!


This doesn't happen often but once when the discussion was about
making large pots of soup and freezing in lunch type portions, I said
I used my yogurt containers. At that point Sheldon muttered he used
small plastic pots because they stack better.

Today I made oceans of beef barley soup and have to admit, Sheldon is
correct, far handier for stacking and cheap anyway at Dollarama. True
it does mean I don't give the yogurt pots a second run.

So, thank you Sheldon.

You're very welcome. A couple weeks ago I was at the 99¢ store and
there was a women there with her daughter who I'd guess was about 10
years old. They were buying what appeared to be quart plastic storage
containers with lids. The women at the register was struggling to put
them into plastic bag, each with their lid on. I ventured to suggest
they buy rectangular ones rather than round and nest them all with the
lids stacked separately. All three stared mouth agape and said they
never thought of that.... they quick went back and chose rectangular
containers instead... nested all 50 fit in one plastic bag. Then to
their amazement I suggested that they store them nested at home and
that the rectangular containers would accomodate about twice the
volume stacked in the same space in their fridge/freezer. I told the
woman when the young girl was out of range that there are instances
when tubular fits better. both women LOL.
