Cereal Bags for Kitchen Chores

I save the cereal bag after we empty the box to use for many things like beating or chopping meat. Just put meat into the bag and lay it flat. Use a saucer or small plate to chop it, no mess on you or in the kitchen. I also cut the bags into fourths to use over things we heat in microwave. Saves from buying wax paper, etc. I'm very frugal, why waste anything?

RE: Cereal Bags for Kitchen Chores

I just love this site. You can learn so many money saving ideas. I thought I knew everything about saving things. My kids go nuts when I tell them to save the yogurt cups and lids from ice cream pails to use when we go camping for cups and plates, but this idea is so great I can't wait to try it.

Exactly, Kathleen! Why waste anything? If we all consider the fact that anything we throw away goes into a landfill and most of it isn't biodegradable, we might try harder to reuse what we have and use less of whatever we can cut down on. Three cheers for you!

I use them when I make crumbs with my rolling pin. I like these other ideas, too.

I also use them as mini garbage bags, for instance, when I skin chicken and don't use the skin, or have anything that I don't want to smell in the garbage can, which is a small roll out one under my sink. I just dump it in the bag and throw it out. Makes it a lot cleaner too.

I might add, that I cut a cereal box in half and use that to store those cereal bags in. I also use one to store small brown paper bags and pieces of clean used aluminum foil in..

I use these bags instead of expensive freezer bags. When I repackage meat, I use large sandwich bags (much cheaper then storage or freezer) then stick them in the cereal bags; never had freezer burn!
