So, I'm fairly certain that I am going to get OXO Pop containers when I declutter/organize my pantry. If you have any of these, what all do you use them for? Are they worth the money? Any drawbacks to these? What sizes do you find you need more of than you expected? Less of than expected?
Thanks for any information you can provide! I want to make sure they are worth the investment before I take the plunge, and don't want to only go 1/2 way, because I can't afford to get all that I need and it doesn't help my organization very much because I don't utilize them to the full extent (a common organization problem for me).

Yup.

I love mine. I use them for oats. We buy several different types in bulk from a local HFS. If I didn't already have containers for flour, sugar, brown sugar I would use these.

Hey! I actually posted about this a while ago. I love them! My suggestion would be to NOT get the smallest ones. The tops take about 1/2 inch or so of the container, so you really can't fit a bag or jar or whatever of anything in them. The pasta one is great, fits several boxes of spaghetti. The really large ones are great for flour. I got the $99 set, which saves you some money, but again the smallest ones I have a hard time finding use for them. So the other ones here are some things I put in them: pretzels, raisins, cookies, sugar, coffee, oats...the list goes on and on. I have the same problem as you, not investing in enough of anything to make it work. But these are very addictive, you can ALWAYS find something to fill them with. So I would invest in the big set at least, or try to find them on discount and pick and choose, to avoid the smallest size. They are so worth the money IMO, makes baking so much fast. Oh you know what I just remembered, I did put baking soda in the smallest one, but I just took it from like a 10lb bag. So I guess it's possible to find a use for them.
