Organization of cupboards

I think I'll get the kids, aged 9 and 17, to do a list of what they like to eat and work from there!

I've got Lock & Lock too, my dry food cupboard is reallt tidy, no spills and no weavils! :cool:

I need to get my loft done too, I know there's a brand new Northern Nights set up there somewhere so I'll be up there the weekend after next to have a mooch.

The carrier bags, I use when we go to the park for picking up litter other people have left behind.....

I usually just buy the cheap baking tins but I know I should invest in a good set,

Learn to love Lock'n'Lock boxes :rotfl:
I really love these and I know a lot of OS'ers use them,they come in all sizes,seal really well and you can see the contents although I still label mine

I only buy them on special offer (debenhams quite often have them on sale) like the list on the door idea tho..might pinch that I usually keep a storage book for rotation,but a laminated/wipe clean list inside the cupboard would be good

yes young lady and it was you who got me on to them, lol. i think it was your thread about when your hubby was on strike or something and you releyed on your store cupboard. after you posting pic's of your cupboard i got on to organising mine.

for years now i have had a perfect lock and lock bakery and ingrediants cupboard. i am so proud of it. i show it to all,lol. i even get gasps of ' oh wow how fab is that' if i have to open it to get something out . i have had many a person go away full of ideas and do the same to their kitchen cupboard. i posted some pics of it a long time ago.

here it is.

i love approved , but delivery to the island is such alot that it doesn't actually work out any cheaper.

yet another reason for us to move off this little island. I just keep hearing the west country and wales calling me. I will get there,lol !!!!!!!

morrisons do lock and lock style. they often have them half price. i used the morrisons ones the tall thin one for salt, lentils etc. but for my various flours i bought the lock and lock flour box. they hold a whole bag of flour. and ok so they are about £4-£5 each for me it was worth it as i wanted one the perfect size for a bag of flour.

also all the little ones i got for my spices were lock and lock from ebay. they were £1.25 each ( 100ml size i think) and postage was £1.35 each. but i wanted 28 so emailed the seller and he posted the whole lot for £2 postage. so although ebay can seem dearer with the postage, but if you want alot, then the postage combined can make it then reasonable.
