I was sick of things sliding off each other so I spent about 45 minutes doing this.
Using dollar tree or thrift store shoe boxes, you can label and sort your leftovers, meat by kind, veggies, seafood, and more.
I keep an inventory of what and when I put up there but if you label them, that is often good enough.
NOTE: I eat lima beans a lot. They are only available certain times of the year in my stores, so I buy several bags and just open and pour them into a clean shoe box. I can scoop out as much or as little as I want and the new headband keeps the box closed as it's on a precarious tilt.

Great idea Sandi
I used to plastic shoe boxes to organize my tea bags, baking supplies such as baking soda, baking powder, non stick spray, cooking mixes such as taco seasoning mixes, etc. The boxes ate stored sideways in the cabinets.
I just love all of the suggestions that you have put on this website... I look into each one that I see is written by you, thanks, you make my getting older not to bad afterall.
I wish this worked in a side by side. I've tried everything imaginable and can't find anything that works. Right now I have zip lock bags in there and oftentimes some falls out ever time I open the freezer door.
I am going to use this idea as soon as I get the freezer down to where I have the room, I am tired of items sliding out. My old freezer had shelves, very helpful.
Freeze the zip locks laying down with as much air out as you can get. Then, try hanging them vertically from binder clips. It works for crafts so give it a thought? Hope that helps. Sandi
