Especially when she is sending food to other people. She says you don't have to worry about your tupperware not being returned. My husbands grandmother does this.

One of the local high schools has a food drive and I used that opportunity to clean out the pantry.

I am a little cautious over storing food in them but it is really hard to use glass in the freezer. This is great for the short time until they get at which time they will more than likely transfer to a glass container or better yet a plate. Like you said the best part is you don't have to worry about getting it back, which never happens. Now if only my family would leave enough food for leftovers.
