Whether you're stocking up for BBQs, garden parties or simply trying to fit a week's worth of fresh salad ingredients into your fridge during a heatwave, most of us make the same mistakes with our fridges: we fill every available gap and don't have rules for organisation other than habit.
Whilst packing your fridge to the brim might feel like you're making the most of the space, experts say an overpacked fridge actually struggles to keep food at a consistent temperature. Poor airflow can mean fruit and vegetables spoil sooner, dairy doesn't stay as fresh when it's sitting in the door, and your appliance has to work harder overall.
