Storage is aways an issue, especially for a junk food hoarder. My piles of junk food were starting to become an eyesore in my tiny dining space. I went to Ikea looking for a reasonably priced solution and found 2!
These cute cardboard boxes are $7 for a pack of 2, and fit a ton of stuff. Their only downfall is the lack of colour and pattern options (its either polka dots or stripes).
But they still look waaaaay better than a pile of chip bags in the corner. You could use them for papers, textbooks or to store your seasonal clothing.
In addition to snacks, I also hoard cacti. Probably because they're the only plants I can keep alive.

So imagine my excitement when I found $3 cacti and $1 tin pots. The tins are great because they can also be used as stationary holders or little paper disposals. I love the metal industrial look too.
There's my terrarium, still alive and well (for now) |
Have you found any cheap goodies for your house lately?
