    Holy shit. This truly inspired and feels like you could have made like at least 5 videos about creative use of cereal boxes, easily 😮 super impressed by all the "outside the box" thinking, pun intended.
    My only issue is we don't have dollar tree over here for those outside contact paper things and I also *really* suck at wrapping boxes. But I've had some success with, as you mentioned, opening the boxes completely and basically re folding them inside out for a basic but uniform look. Though I get the impression the wrapping adds good amounts of stability to the finished project. Anyway, all of these look amazing and honestly sell-worthy, fantastic ideas overall.

    I was planning to buy a box for holding birthday/shower/ wedding cards that needed to be written in and mailed. Now I have the perfect solution!
    And I already have the contact paper from another project. 😀

    Great video of ideas! Thanks for not wasting my time with a lot of "filler" talk. Also, no distracting background music so I can't hear what's being said. Well done!

    While you are repurposing the box, clean the bag inside and reuse as a bag, sandwich wrap and freezer wrap and rolling out cookie dough, pie crusts, chocolate dipped candies or pretzels, no bake cookies and separating hamburger patties for the freezer. Use it as a shake and bake bag. Use it to crush bread crumbs. One person said they use it in their vacuum food bag sealer. Treat it like wax paper.
    My mom used to buy sale bread and put it between every 2 slices for sandwiches. She would have use (3) sit at the table and one child with clean hands would take hand another 2 slices the other would put it into the bag with the cut out piece to separate them. One person used several cut into 2 piece to create privacy for 1/2 of a window, still lets in light. Never any stale bread.

      Yes! I recently started using the cereal bags as wax paper for rolling out tortillas - I have it in an upcoming video. But I LOVE the other uses you mention! Thank you so much for sharing!

    Ok, with professional photos you DO NOT want to use the cardbox - it has acids that will destroy your pricy (in so many ways) photos.

    Great organizing projects. However, the ideas would apply to other types of food boxes as well. Unfortunately buying dry cereal is one of the least frugal things you can do. You would save a great deal of money by using only cooked cereal like oatmeal or cream of wheat. They are not only far less expensive, they don't have added sugar, artificial flavors, artificial colors and preservatives. You can add raisins to cooked cereal, or other dried fruit, and or use a sweetener of your choice, Frankly, candy bars would be just as healthy as dry cereal, or more so if they have nuts, for example.
