I am in love with these ITSO bins from Target:
http://www.target.com/p/itso-clear-see-through-bin-6-12-x13-25-x6-56/-/A-13710865#prodSlot=medium_1_2&term=itso
They fit so well in my kitchen cabinets. Here's what I am using them for so far:
1- my Contigo coffee cups. They used to fall over all the time in my cabinet- now that they're in a container its nice and neat. 8 cups fit perfectly.
2- for all my utensils that I don't use often and don't have drawer space for. I loaded up a container and stuck it on a shelf out of the way.
3- My pullout drawer in my 18"x 24" pantry. 3 of these containers fit exactly on each pullout drawer, and no space is wasted because they have straight sides as opposed to tapered. I made a little hot drink station on one pull-out drawer: one container for boxes of tea (8 fit perfectly), one container for coffee, and one container for sweeteners- splenda, sugar, honey, etc. The pullout drawers are shallow so if I would try to put a tall canister of coffee without putting it in a container, it would tip over every time I pulled out the drawer.
I am going to buy a bunch more next time I go- there are so many things I want to use them for. They are really versatile!
