My cupboards are always a mess and there is no where to put certain things. I had looked at Tupperware's Modular system before and didn't want to invest that kind of money (sorry not going to have a party either). Now they are on sale (40% off). I was looking at them but without seeing them in person, I don't know what exactly to think about getting. Does anyone on here have them? Do you use them or are they a waste of space and money? For sure, I'll probably get another pasta container and cereal containers but I wasn't sure on the squares, ovals, super ovals, etc.
 
I've got a few. I actually prefer the other system they had for a short time that was discontinued. It had better seals and the containers themselves looked more modern. If you can discipline yourself to use them, then they can really help keep your pantry looking neat. I've got staples in mine: baking powder, baking soda, cornstarch, chocolate chips, salt, rice, oatmeal, etc. All the things that come in carbboard boxes that don't seal, or bags that don't stack.
 
Love them love them love them!!!!!! They also have a $99 deal this month.If you need a TW rep to buy them from, PM me. A friend of mine sells TW.
 
I might have to try those. Round containers waste so much space in a square cabinet.I just acquired some of those collapsing containers - so far, I like them. They take up a lot less room in storage (they're relatively flat) and expand to the size I need.
 
I have some of the Rubbermaid brand collapsable bowls. They're microwaveable - the TW ones are not. They are very nice for saving space in the cupboard.
 
I usually transfer leftovers to stoneware or the small Micro-Cooker anyway.

I have their "stretch" lid set and I love the fact that you don't have to worry about finding the right size bowl because the lid will flex around your food. I have a friend who has a consultant that I have bought from before so I know I'll go through her if I buy some.
 
I have the square modulars and LOVE Them!!! I use them for flour, sugar, etc. I had a party in the Fall and got a whole lot of stuff. My cake taker is my favorite!
 
I love the modulars, too. I also use them for flour, sugar, etc. I had the cereal storers but found that I could never get the lid on without a lot of cursing, so I transfered all my cereal to the modulars.
 
yes, I have the Squares and use them for flour, sugar, brown sugar, powdered sugar, rice, etc. They are SOOOOO handy. I had some other canisters but I hated the small opening at the top--the modular mates are nice and big so you can measure out the flour without making a big mess.

It's called spandex!

Someone told me once that if you cannot get a lid to fit, run it under warm water to loosen it up, dry then snap on and it should fit.

I already have the canister set, my sister gave it to me after she hosted a party. But DH doesn't like it sitting on the counter. I don't know if I would have more room with the modulars in our cabinets or not. We only have two food cabinets (four doors worth of space) to store all of our food items in.
 
I love my modulars! Took me a long time to invest in them. Bought them to fit the cabinets in my old house. Don't you know they are not the best fit in new house and my current cabinet shelves are not adjustable!

All in all I still like them.

Got an email about the sale from a TW gal I know..... considdering doing a show but truly do not want to be bothered... I have horrible turn out for shows!

40% off is a good deal. If you know a really good TW person they will come to your house and help you figure out what you need.
 
i have and love the rectangle modulars. LOVE them - they are the exact depth of my cabinet, and one of the sizes fits an entire 5# bag of sugar, another the 5# of flour. -my entire pantry cabinet is a white and blue happy place lol!
 
We have the kind that you can buy in Linens N Things that are in a spinny thing and love them. Not too much money and they work well.
 
Walmart!!!Walmart!!! :sing:

I bought some cool Cereal containers, square containers for flour and sugar, and they were inexpensive.

I also got on eBay and bought some used tupperware for a great price!!

Debbie :D
 
I have a TON of modular Mates and LOVE them! My entire pantry closet is filled with them floor to ceiling, plus the entire cabinet over the stove... I've never tried attaching a picture to a messaage before but if you can see the two pictures I've tried to attach here, you will have a much better idea.

I got them at 40% off last January plus a TON more than that... I had a really big party... a good friend of mine sells TW and she gives me a nice discount when I order, so if you want to order some let me know =)

I LOVE my organized pantry! I highly recommend rectangles and super ovals - they take up the entire depth of the cabinet, so no more wasted space.

=) Jen

FYI--if you search around Tupperware's site, they do have a cool list of modular mates and what their capacities are, like which ones hold an entire bag of flour, etc.
 
Jen, all I can say is WOW!!!!

I saw that when I was looking earlier but it doesn't mean anything since I'm at work. I think this weekend I'll go through some of the items I want to store and see what would hold them best.
 
Why yes, actually I am a box. Can you tell? <grin>

Actually, the quiz (I took it twice a few weeks ago) didn't identify a second shape for me, but I really think I have some squiggle in me as well. =)

I printed off the chart that they have and highlighted all the things I would like to store in them. Now I just need to go home and figure out what the volume of the stuff is to figure out what I really want.
 
OMG Jen! Wow! I've never seen a pantry like that!

I also LOVE the modular mates. I have quite a few but want more to be able to store all the little bags in my pantry. On January 1st, I saw the sale on their web site and I made a list of what I want to buy. I sorted through my pantry to figure out what I want to store where and what size I need.

Too bad they discontinued the black (or cosmos) lids as now I will have to different colors.
 
Amazing!!!
