Well, we're home with two 12 quart food containers that will fit in the cabinet without modification. He measured. The cereal bags will be put inside the containers & the box recycled.

We had to get these because we've been inundated with sugar ants. DH poured his cereal, added milk and found 6-7 floating. YUCK!! Weather conditions this summer have been perfect for them. Never had them to this extent before.

I'm glad you found what you needed. I love my DH more than anything, but I feel your pain about shopping with them!

Or maybe he will rebuild the cabinet to fit the new container! Bless him.

You're home- the product is suitable/working - you are still speaking to each other - life is good!

:-P You survived and didn't need to build anything when you came home!! Success.

You know, in some cultures ants are just another source of protein. :mrgreen: Sorry, couldn't help myself.
