Want to save money on your produce purchases? Only one person in the house likes one certain veggie or fruit? Tupperware's Fridge Smarts are the answer. I use these regularly myself. I can keep and veggie or fruit for 3 to 4 weeks in my fridge with FridgeSmarts. One of the main secrets to this is to not was the veggies or fruit until time for you to use/eat them.

There is a list laser printed on the side of the container letting you know how the container should be set up in the fridge. There are two buttons for air vents on the end of each container. You either have both closed, both open, or one open depending on what you put in the container.

The overall investment pays for itself in a matter of months. Lets face it most produce does good to last one week, on average, in the fridge.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
