10 Ways to Get The Most Out of Your Freezer

Ah, the freezer. It might just be our favorite piece of kitchen tech—keeping food fresh, cold and spoil-free. But there are ways to get more out of this household appliance (and spend less while you do it!)

Lifehacker recently posted a list of "10 Simple Freezer Tricks to Save You Time and Money."

There's some handy household tips about things like freezing meat and un-sticking plastic wrap, but there's also a few really useful ideas to help you save electricity—and money!
