Thrifty Saturday
Food storage and thrifty ways to achieve it. I haven't bought clingfilm or freezer bags for more than 20 years. The only times I've ever bought ziplock bags was when we needed them for the rare occasion when we fly....these are then washed out and used until they're no longer fit for purpose [then recycled]. This is just what I do...gnat bottomed by name gnat bottomed by nature๐ I've found that the bags which house breakfast cereal make fabulous freezer bags [they're also good for separating burgers when you want to freeze them and not have them end up in one big lump]. They're sturdy and keep the contents from going dry. When it comes to securing the top I have some bag ties, but I also keep the ties which come with the coffee bags, bits of stray garden wire, clothes pegs and even cutting the top of the plastic bag and then wrapping it round the neck works. Clingfilm. If I have to wrap something then I use foil and then, as every other thrifty person I know,
Love it, and so true!

DeleteThat is a hoot. I'm not old. I'm just medieval.
ReplyDeleteI like that...it sounds much cooler being called Medieval! Arilx
DeleteI enjoyed that! Those crusaders are starting to look like babies!
ReplyDeleteIn the UK we joke that you can tell you're getting older when the policemen start looking younger! Arilx
DeleteOh good, I'm Medieval rather than middle aged - or just plain ancient!
