    Rice dispenser on granite countertop for organizing Costco purchases.

    Review: "It works great. I got tired of having a mess with the rice bag, so I bought this product. Now the rice is nicely storaged and I have an organized & clean kitchen. The seal is not as expected, I thought it was about to be better, but is not that bad. He size is perfect, it fits under my cabinet. It's been a few months of use and the durability is better than expected. The price is good for the product. It also brings a free cup that helps to measure how many cups are you doing. Loves it!!" - Mary V.

    Hand holding a snack rack organizer next to a display of assorted chips, addressing Costco a*******n solutions.

    Review: "When it comes to chips and snacks in our home, they're all thrown together inside a wicker basket. The DS THE DISPLAY STORE 3pcs Hanging Chip Holder is something we needed and didn't even know we needed it. The kit comes with three metal strips, thumb screws, rods, labels, and a handy storage bag. The assembly was straightforward, with no special tools needed except an Allen wrench, which is included with the kit. Once assembled, you can hang this separately or together in your pantry, baker's rack, or merchandise counter, making it versatile. The clips are strong and durable and make snack organization a real treat. Each strip has a slot to insert a tag to label the row, which makes organizing snacks much better. I'm definitely in for another rack. Highly Recommended!" - Johnny Buns

    Costco vacuum sealer on a granite countertop with packaged meat, illustrating organized shopping habits.

    Review: "Finally got to use the vacuum sealer for multiple types of food and it worked flawlessly on all of them. time will tell if the vacuum stays but so far after a week it is still holding. I used it for regular foods going in the freezer and for short term freeze dried food without an oxygen absorber as a test. The bags supplied are mediums so you can judge from how they work what to reorder. I had to order an accessory package from Amazon to be able to use the vacuum hose supplied on other types of sealable jars. The price point did not hurt either. I can recommend this product for the short time I have had it." - Sam; Kim Carson

    Get Ready To Tap, Print, And Stick With This Bluetooth Label Maker And Finally Get Organized

    Adult organizing strategy for handling a Costco a*******n with labeled storage for pocket hole screws.

    Review: "Cheap label maker that works perfect with a smart phone. Since it heats the tape from behind, there is no ink to ever buy and it does not smear either. Just the rolls of tape to buy every once in a while and they are cheap compared to other labels. They stick to anything and still come off easily when needed without leaving residue. I have labeled over 1000 items with it, the battery holds the charge forever and it is quickly recharged with the included USB cable. Fantastic item for the price and the build-in cutter makes sure the label always has the same space left and right of your marking." - Alaska Toolnut

    Costco snack packs arranged neatly in clear bins on a dining table.

    Review: "I bought these bins to eliminate my collection of half-full boxes of protein bars so I could easily store and manage my inventory. The bins are surprisingly good-quality and rather sturdy, given their low price. The dividers are removable, which means they can accommodate different sizes of snacks and supplements. These bins work well in the refrigerator or pantry and have dramatically reduced the clutter and mess I used to have. All in all, I'd recommend." - Benton

    I will never understand how this page can criticize Bezos and Amazon (and rightly so) while advertising stuff you can buy at Amazon at the same time. Hypocrisy is strong here
