Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

The freezer is one of the most important places in the home. Anyone who has ever tried to find a place to store all of their favorites can relate. In our house, this is where our kids place their timeless classics. Pizza rolls, chicken nuggets, French toast sticks, you name it, we have it. Unfortunately, these items end up taking up a lot of space in our freezers.

What can we do when these problems start to arise? There is one simple solution and it is our pleasure to pass it along to you. We cannot take full credit for it, though. Some freezer bags come with an option to use the zippers that can be resealed and put back once you are done. However, that’s not always the case. And even when it is, there’s actually a better way.

Of course, separate freezer bags can be used and some may try to use a chip clip to keep their bags closed. These solutions are okay, but they are imperfect.

Australian TikTok user Philip Quinn is the one who is putting an end to these concerns for most of us.

Grab a pair of scissors when you are ready to get started. That’s all you need to turn any bag into a freezer bag.

Make one deep cut into the freezer bag in question and then tie it up when you are done. We wish that there was a catch here but it’s really that easy.

Quinn jokes that he has arrived from the year 3000 and he might be right about that.

For some TikTok users, this was not a new hack. For others, it’s a breath of fresh air.

What do you think of the hack? Have you tried it already? Let us know!
