Guest guest Posted December 31, 2000 Report Share Posted December 31, 2000 Lyssa, About a month ago I had a hankering for chili and I don't know how to make any soup in small quanities! I could feed an army! Anyway I had some high $ coupons to try the gladware containers that go from freezer to microwave. You can re-use them too. Since I live alone, I bought the small round bowls and medium square ones. The bowls hold enough for one meal, and the square ones hold enough for 2. I like the square one better because they don't waste as much freezer space. I think some of the coupon services had some of the coupons, but they may expire today.....check and see, the coupons bring them down to like .25 each or less if the store doubles.
