jrstephens said:My problem is that I have a deep pantry and so much gets pushed to the back and never used b/c it is out of sight. I have a great sized pantry I am just not pleased with how deep it is and I loose things. I will go buy more of something b/c I cannot find out, to find it the next time I clean out the pantry all the way in the back where I cannot see or reach it.
This is exactly the problem that I used to have, and Modular Mates has completely solved that for me! When I get home from the store, original packages get opened and everything goes into these modular mates. Flour, sugar, cereal, rice, brown sugar, potato chips, EVERYTHING. The modular mates are mostly clear, so it's easy to tell what I am low on and what I'm not. And that's also why I like the rectangles and superovals the best - they use the entire depth of the cabinet so that I'm not wasting space back there, and I can still see it all. Problem solved!
As for the person who asked what I keep in all my modular mates, well... I bake a lot of breads and stuff so I have multiple types of flours and other baking type things (two types of cocoa, different kinds of nuts, choc chips, etc.). I also keep all of my kids snacky things in there - multiple types of crackers, cookies, teddy grahams, chips, everything.
There is a chart on the Tupperware website (I think someone already posted that here) that will tell you exactly what size you will need for however much of anything specific you want to store. That chart is immensely helpful when deciding which sizes you will need.
