I don’t know about you, but one of my biggest pet peeves is when my groceries get all jumbled together, smashed, or even ruined because the bagger doesn’t take his or her time to neatly bag them.

I always make it a point to thank and compliment any cashier and/or bagger who neatly organizes my groceries by type (boxes together, fruits and veggies together, meats separate from everything else, etc). I appreciate their extra attention to detail and I find that they can usually fit more items in a smaller amount of space if they do it neatly.

Maybe I’m just really weird though 🙂

Well, because of my somewhat obsessive grocery packing regimen, I’m just a little giddy to share today’s giveaway with all of you… the CRESBI Crates!

Ok, so if you’re wondering what in the world a “CRESBI Crate” is, let me explain…

CRESBI is actually an acronym that stands for Collapsable Reusable, Environmentally friendly, Stackable, Box, Idea. This video does a nice job of demonstrating how the crates can be used.

Not only is CRESBI one of our January sponsors, they are also offering a very generous giveaway of their grocery shopping crates!

I’ve been using their Colossal 6 Pack which provides more than enough room for my weekly groceries. I love the bright colors, I love how quickly and easily the crates fold down, and I love that none of my groceries get smashed or end up rolling around in the back of my car on the way home.

Nora actually uses the baby CRESBI Crate to carry toys and other objects around the house. It’s pretty cute!

Being an organizer, I immediately thought of 101 other uses for the CRESBI crates — like toys, craft supplies, packing for a quick trip, potlucks, and so much more.

I know I had never seen anything like the CRESBI crates before… so if you’re new to this concept too, you might want to check out a few more of their YouTube video clips to see these crates in action.

Oh, but make sure you come back and enter the giveaway!

    What a great idea! I hate the plastic bags from the grocery store. I would use them for grocery shopping.

  3. Angela says

    Amazing! I’ve never heard of these before, but I can only imagine the many different ways to use them: homeschooling, groceries and pet rescue come to mind 🙂

  4. Amy says

    I would use these for groceries (and a million other things, I’m sure)! Thanks!

  8. kathy w says

    I would put 2 in my car and then one under my son’s desk and i am sure I can use all the other
    in a lot of different places.

  11. Cheryl says

    I would love these for groceries. I hate when my bags tip over and I am crawling over the seats to reach something that has rolled all the way back!

  13. Jamie says

    Love, love, love this product. I also hate the way most people bag my groceries. I would love to have a set for groceries and maybe another set for the sports equipment during soccer season. Great idea!

  16. Kara says

    I love the idea of using the crates for groceries! What a cool product!

  22. Jennifer Miller says

    I would use these crates for my daughter’s books and for organizing my household, coupon, recipe, etc. binders and paperwork.

  24. Megan C says

    What a fabulous idea. Never seen these before. I would use them for traveling on trips and groceries. Great idea!

  26. Sandy says

    In the back of my Jeep to keep work and/or groceries from sliding around. I have some old and cracked collapsible crates….I need these to replace them!

  27. Liz Post says

    Groceries is a great idea, however I have a 4 year old and 2 1/2 year old that LOVE to do crafts at home. Therefore, I would use the crates to store my entire supply of crafts: markers, crayons, tape, glue, paper, scissors, cotton balls, paper plates, etc. Any unused crates I would use to organize the kiddos blankets, animals, toys, etc. in their clostes.

  29. Crystal says

    I could use these for Sams Club and Walmart runs! I bet they would make packing for weekend trips much easier also!

  30. Dena says

    These look like a fabulous way to keep all of the groceries organized AND in great condition on the way home. With three grandchildren living with me, anything to make my life a little easier is greatly appreciated. These would be a HUGE help!!! Great product!!

  32. Hannah says

    These would be so great when taking my groceries up 3 flights of stairs! The plastic bags always break and I never remember to grab the reusable bags–my husband uses them as lunch bags. These look amazing!

  33. Jenny says

    I would use these for a million things around the house and grocery shopping!

  35. Melanie says

    I would use these for shopping and keeping items from sliding around in the van.

  38. Tiffany says

    Would use for groceries, toys, and organizing all my kids’ stuff when I send them off to Grandpa and Grandma’s!
