The Best Food Storage Deals on Amazon

Guvvie Silicone Lids

I can’t imagine my kitchen without these $13 Guvvie silicone lids. In addition to turning any bowl into its own food storage container, they can also be used on the stovetop with pots and pans, and are oven safe up to 450°F. After years of use, the silicone material is unblemished, and I even use them to cover bowls in the microwave so I don’t have to clean up splattered food after heating up leftovers.

Longzon 14-Pack Silicone Stretch Lids 

When I decided to stop hanging onto takeout containers, I figured I should let go of plastic wrap, too. These Longzon silicone stretch lids became my go-to replacement for any task that would have called for plastic wrap, like covering a bowl of dough or wrapping a lemon half. The 14 lids come in a variety of diameters  ranging from 2.6 inches to 9.8 inches,  and are capable of fitting over a range of vessels, from a can of soda to a stock pot. At $10 for a 14-pack, it’s a great deal for all the plastic wrap you’ll never have to buy again.

Bee’s Wrap Reusable Beeswax Food Wraps 

Very little delights me more than eating a homemade sandwich al fresco. Whether I’m at the park, camping, or just on a work break, my Bee’s Wrap beeswax wraps keep my foods protected when I’m on-the-go. Instead of fiddling with cling wrap or aluminum foil, I like the simplicity of these sustainable beeswax wraps that are easy to clean and just as easy to use. Right now, they’re on sale for $17 on Amazon, so grab a set and change your lunch game for the better.

Ello Duraglass 5-Pack Food Storage Containers

A set of durable glass storage containers is an essential in any kitchen. After you’ve enjoyed your meals, you want to have a safe place to keep them, right? My Ello duraglass food containers (which are 22% off) have been my go-to for years thanks to their durability and leak-proof lids. They also come with removable silicone sleeves that keep my hands from getting scorched when the containers are hot from being in the oven or microwave.

Ideatech 20-Pack Reusable Food Storage Bags

For snacks, produce, or other loose ingredients (like the two cups of lentils I just can’t seem to shake) reusable food storage bags are a versatile solution that come in snack-, sandwich-, and gallon-sized bags to cover a whole range of food storage needs. With a 30% coupon, the set of 20 bags is just $15 — or less than $1 apiece. 

Glasslock 10.5-Cup Rectangle Container

For leftovers like baked goods or large amounts of soup, I use this $18 Glasslock rectangle container, which has a generous 10.5-cup capacity for bigger batches of food. Even though the glass is heavy, it’s sturdy, and the handle makes it easy to transport, no matter what’s inside. As someone who’s always showing up to a potluck with at least two dozen cookies in tow, packing and transporting treats is a breeze with my Glasslock container. They’re also great for freezing food, as I never have to worry about the sturdy lid warping or chipping from the cold.

Lille Home 3-Pack Leak-Proof Stainless-Steel Containers

I get it, sometimes glass is just plain heavy. If I’m taking leftovers outside of the house, I like to use stainless-steel containers that are light and durable. These 26% off Lille Home containers come in small (6.2 inches by 4.2 inches by 1.9 inches), medium (6.9 inches by 5 inches by 2.5 inches), and large (7.6 inches by 5.8 inches by 3.1 inches) and nest together so they barely take up any drawer space. While they’re not microwave-safe, they’re great for salads and snacks. The stainless steel also makes them easy to clean, and the silicone bottoms are an added bonus (no clanging around in your bag).
