Though some people have turned to canning as a way to preserve and store food, most of us don’t have the time, patience, or experience to take that on. But just because you don’t want to can your prepared food doesn’t mean you can’t make it last. In fact, one of the best ways to store food to keep it fresh and retain nutritional value is with a freezer.
If you want to store more than a couple of frozen meals and a tub or two of ice cream, you may want to invest in a larger freezer that can hold your stock of food. Right now, Walmart is offering an amazing deal on this $400 Frigidaire Upright Freezer, and selling it for only $197. For over half off, you can store more than just your veggie garden harvest.

This upright freezer is great for organization, as well as storage. Though chest freezers are another popular choice, they can easily get disorganized — not to mention the strain on your back from bending over to dig through your goods.
This freezer is not only upright, but it has six different shelves, so you can easily access your most frequently reached-for items, and put the ones you want to save for later closer to the back.
“Perfect,” wrote one shopper. “Small but mighty! Living in a smaller house, my husband and I needed a smaller freezer but I really wanted a stand up freezer instead of the small chest freezers. This little guy is a perfect fit! It is small but spacious, sleek, and of nice quality.”
Though you will have to set it up upon arrival, most customers find it to be a breeze. “No issues with delivery, packaging, or installation,” said one shopper. “Literally pull the plastic off and plug it in. It’s lightweight, so you can do it yourself. As far as the freezer, it’s [the] perfect size for an apartment or backup.”
Not only will it stay cold, but it also cools down quickly, so you won’t have to wait to fill it up. “I plugged it in and within an hour it was at 5 degrees,” said one shopper. “The freezer is exactly what we were looking for.”
This $197 model is on sale right now, but don’t assume stock will last. With over 8,000 five-star ratings and over 500 sold yesterday, this freezer is in high demand.
