Here are some of the most ingenious storage solutions you should steal for an organized refrigerator.

After lugging heavy bags of groceries through the door, the last thing anyone feels like doing is sorting them by type or expiration date. The more common strategy is stuffing everything into the little refrigerator space available and hoping your fridge doesn’t burst.

Trust us ― giving everything in your fridge a proper place will save you lots of time and money in the long run. Here are a few ways to help you whip your fridge into shape.
