Like keeping a baggie in the bunny cracker box so that I will reuse it a few times for the same food. If I have a bag covering a box to keep it fresh- I put the new box in the same bag. I have the space issue with tuppies too. I use them for things that we are cycling through in the fridge- but the freezer just can't fit them and I would be forced to choose between food waste or baggie usage.

Plastic reusable storage containers. They are harder to see through and take up a lot of room in a kid's lunchbox, but they are reusable, washable, and stack great in the fridge/freezer. i haven’t replaced all my ziplocks (sigh - they are SO handy), but I am trying to use less by using - plastic.

It become almost a visceral rejection of allowing this stuff into you home.
