I keep all mine in a basket... all pouch stuffs and gravy/sauce mixes.. keeps them a little better organized.. ;)
What i'm talking about is packs like betty crocker potato pouches, gravy packs, etc. Do you store them in a container? I have my stockpile in our basement and i have plenty of shelves. They look messy just sitting on the shelf. Plus they take up too much space like that.
How do you store yours?
thanks

I took a shoe organize that attaches to back of door and attached it to the back of pantry door. I also cut in between sections and made smaller ones and attached to inside cupboard like under the sink.
I keep mine in a container.
I had them on a shelf and your right, it looked messy.
So they are now in a shoe box conatiner that i keep next to the shelf :)
I use whatever containers I can find - I've used a lot of boxes too with the flap folded in. That's what my tuna and all the clearance christmas candy is in currently.
It may take me a while at the store & checkout, but my Groceries are FREE!
When I am buying something like a lot of tuna pouches, kool-aid, or fleischmann's yeast (those are the things I can think of right off the top of my head that I can "see" in my pantry), I try to take a display box from the shelf. So, if I see an almost empty Starkist box at Kroger, I just buy the last five pouches by putting the box in my cart. When I checkout they usually take them out and scan them, and put them back in the box before bagging it. I have never even had them question me about why! I have even walked through the store and seen a buggy of empty boxes (when employees were straightening shelves) and thought, "ooh, I have enough ___ to take that box"). They are just gonna toss them anyway!
I do have baskets in my pantry that I toss other pouches in, but anytime that I have several of an item I try to get the box that "matches" just because they are meant to look neat in that box and it seems more uniform to me in the pantry.
I bought stackable storage boxes, both clear and solid, that I either lable or through the clear ones can see through what I have in them. They are not that huge and two fit on top of each other into my shelving system. The solid ones [mislabled] are great for hiding goodies too, if you have pantry raiders, LOL.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
