Upgrade your freezer
Most dollar stores will be full of plastic containers in all shapes and sizes that you can then use to organize your spaces to make the most of them.
The freezer is not the first place that comes to mind when it comes to organizing using these types of items, but it should be! Most freezers are not the most spacious, and they can easily get cramped when you have to shove in a lot of different types of bags. Then it can get very easy to forget about a pack of frozen dumplings at the back of the freezer because you cannot see everything you have!
Save yourself the hassle and get yourself some appropriately sized storage bins from the dollar store. You can choose the transparent ones on which you can put a label (which can also be bought from the dollar store), or you can write on them with a sharpie, or you can get the colorful ones and remember what is in each bin by color!
That way you can organize your freezer and make the most of the space since everything has its own space, you can easily find everything you need, and nothing will go forgotten again!
If you want to have labels that are going to last you a long while and you have more things you would like to label, we recommend you get yourself a label maker!

LOVE THE ONE FOR THE FREEZER
I love your store and use Craft for my family child care
This sounds good but tempi post keeps popping up not Dollar Store.??
Absolutely love these great hacks for home office as well.and home too.at still great price.but wish the $1.00 items would come back or change name of store..isn’t that false advertising.as stuff is not a buck any longer!!
Move on!!
Then don’t shop there.
These are some nice ideas. I love the mail organizer and plan to try it in my study room
Love the wall file. I had one at work , but never thought to use one at home. I already have a good system for bills, but need something to hold instructions on purchases and warranties and I think one of these would certainly work better than using up one of my kitchen drawers. Thank you 😊
I am an art teacher & use Dollar Tree bins (dishpans?) in my room all over the place—as turn-in boxes for finished work, my “grade boxes,” to “file” class sets of reference packets I’ve copied & to use for certain lessons….to label & use for substitute teacher’s materials for a lesson per period/per day…..to assemble lesson materials for special projects, to gather up used materials so I can file them later in my permanent files, to use as a dishpan to clean materials…to deposit all the crayons in so I can offer them on my rolling cart of materials to use…..any other media, too, like markers, colored pencils….the uses are almost endless in my position :). I also use them in my home as organizing bins to pull out from upper & lower cabinets. Do NOT ever have to “dig” to find something…just pull the bin out and find it right away. Done. Put the bin back in the cabinet 🙂
Love the idea for storage to organize freezer. Will make things much easier for my husband to find when I ask him to take something out of the freezer for me.
