Tupperware lids and containers
This is one of the things that make my skin crawl. It seems the lids never match the container. The companies keep changing the size, shape, and whatever else. I want to scream when I put food away! I'm sure this is a ploy by (the companies) to get us all to buy more and more. Reminds me of the movie "Father of the bride" with Steve Martin where he is in the grocery store buying hot dogs (10 in a pack) and buns (8 in a pack)
Pisses me off! Sorry... Having a marital moment with the wife on the condition of the "(&*%$&% Tupperware drawer!!!) Phewwww RANT over...Carry on....

Chinese takeout.
Get pints and quarts of soup. Keep containers. Last forever. Lids are interchangeable. Free.

Never bought any. I just use cling wrap over bowels or plates although having leftovers is rare in my house
My kids and their friends are like a pack of hyenas at dinner time. Honestly scary

 Zip locks are nice but like Zeke said, not so much for soups unless you are going to freeze them. I like Gassy's idea of two sized containers that take the same lids. Last night I had just had it trying to find a matching lid for the container I had already put the food in. My wife absolutely loves to cook and is good at it. There are always leftovers in our house. I'm a very lucky man to have her!

Tupperware needs to make something to store tupperware in. Our drawer is a pile and the ONLY thing my OCD wife does not concern herself with.

Temporary abdominal closure using an i.v. bag silo for severe trauma. Fox VJ, Miller J, Nix AM. Source Trauma Service, Trinity Mother Frances Health System, Tyler, Tex., USA. Abstract Patients with severe abdominal trauma injuries can have improved outcomes if a priority-oriented approach is taken to surgical intervention. This includes temporary abdominal closure and planned reoperation to complete complex, lengthy procedures when the patient is stabilized. Temporary abdominal closure can be achieved safely and cost-effectively by using a presterilized 3-liter cystoscopy fluid i.v. bag. This article discusses the rationale for temporary abdominal closure and planned reoperation, physiologic considerations in abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), abdominal injuries or conditions leading to ACS, and manifestations of ACS. It compares and contrasts various materials used for temporary abdominal closure, illustrates bag preparation and silo application and removal, and analyzes complex intraoperative and postoperative nursing activities.
