Our problem was A) Here it was not very cheap, and B) We ended up with a lot of things we didn't really care for. But, it does work great for many people! Definitely something to look into!

Most fruit is easy to freeze if even just for smoothies. And things like carrots or potatoes will last quite a while in the fridge. We belong to a CSA and work there 4 hours/week from June to October. We get more produce than we know what to do with (and we can and freeze a ton!) all for a SET price. It's a very good thing. And it's all organic and local and super fresh. Nothing like having melon for lunch that was still on the vine at breakfast! =) Even if you are buying the large size at Sam’s or Costco, you can freeze what you may not use right away.
