cresbi crates

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!

    I would use the crates for groceries! I’ve been looking for something just like this too!

  2. PW says

    CRESBI seems to make a good product. I do shop after work and the cooler bag is good for storing items needed refridgeration. I like that the crates can be packed at the grocery check out and fits on the belt. Much easier and greener then the paper/plastic bags.

  7. Sara E. says

    I would definitely use them for groceries and organizing the car, but I would mostly use them for gardening. These would be great for taking plants to our plant sale, or to friends. They would also be great for transporting soil amendments and tools out to the garden for work days. I would keep them in my greenhouse for moving seedlings, plants and organizing materials. They look VERY useful!

  9. LP says

    I would take this to Sam’s and keep it in the car. I always forget my bags, and they’re usually not sturdy enough for the heavy stuff.

  10. Julie says

    I would use for groceries. My husband is an outdoor salesman, so he could use for his catalogs and literature. Would beat the cardboard Box he uses now!:)

  13. Misti Robinson says

    I would use these crates either in the trunk or for our craft supplies. Thanks for doing this give away. I love your blog.

  18. April says

    Would love for grocceries!! I have an open hatch area too and hate when my grocceries slide/squish! What a great product!

  21. Nancy Lewis says

    Love the look of these crates. Think they would be very useful for organizing items needed for sports ~ the uniform, shoes, balls etc ~ so they can just grab the crate and put it in the car.

  23. Elizabeth says

    I would use them either for shopping or organizing the back of our van.
    Thank you!

  25. Gayle says

    Groceries (especially at discount places where I bag my own groceries). Thanks for the opportunity!

  27. Lynne says

    For groceries! Our area just started charging for bags at grocery stores, so this would be very helpful!

  30. Jo says

    I would use these to sort/organize groceries and/or to store oil, blankets, etc. in my car trunk!

  31. Alyssia Kalman says

    I would use my crates for camping, for transporting groceries back and forth, to then be able to store the crates during the camping trip with out taking up too much room 🙂

  32. Lisa W. says

    Would be great in the car, but also for all the little toys the grandkids like to pull out of the toy closet.

  34. Jenna Moore says

    I shop twice a month and have a truck (extended cab) groceries on the inside or out would deffinately benefit. I also love many organizing needs. Thank you for this opportunity

  40. Debbie says

    I would use these in my truck to keep my groceries from rolling all over the bed! Thanks. 🙂
