We have an extra refrigerator in our garage. We use the freezer to shop sales on meats, store "cook ahead" frozen meals and to generally keep overstock items. I try to keep the things I use frequently in my kitchen refrigerator, but I continuously found myself digging through the garage freezer. Often times after the dig, I would find that the item really wasn't in there. This wastes time, energy and could be very frustrating.
I needed an inventory system. I had been to Staples and found these great Dry Erase Decals:
I decided to put one on the fridge and list everything that was in the freezer. At a glance I could at least see if what I wanted was in there, before even opening the door. Once something is taken out, I just erase it with the magnetic dry erase marker/eraser. After I did this, I discovered, since I have a white fridge, I could just write directly on the fridge, but decided the decals looks a little better, and the writing might stay put better.
