  • my partner has been collecting plastic containers from takeaways and pasta sauce pots for the last year so that she won't be upset when our daughter loses 'real tupperware' at school
    After I blew my top at them having completely taken over a cupboard that was in high demand for the rest of its contents she agreed it had gotten out of control and moved them to what would be a dedicated cupboard.
    Much to my dismay the collection has since quadrupled.
    Worse still, finding a lid to correspond with a bottom is a laborious affair that sees the whole cupboards contents slipping out of it.

    Long way to say I'm completely with you.

  • finding a lid to correspond with a bottom is a laborious affair

    After the Nth time of desperately looking for something possibly stored behind the towers of tupperware in our cupboard, and breaking out the special non-English curse words for the frictionless shape-shifting hell spawn said tupperware becomes once disturbed, my partner agreed to keep only what we could store with their lids on. We may have fewer but we’re never without the lid, and they’re easier to re-stack when moved.

  • We have a nice neat stack of tubs and matching lids from the various curry places we order from, which also act as a wall to hold back the pulsating mass of mismatched clustertub Armageddon behind.

    One thing I’m happy to see the back of is the carrier bag cupboard of yesteryear
