in a box?
a tin?
separately or together
mine are loose in the cupboard but i am thinking of reorganising this situation.

In the M&S tin which contained some, bought at 🎄a few years ago. Or in one of the M&S 🎄shortbread tins of which I have 4, kept because they each hold a dozen of the chocolate fairy cakes I invariably make for Gdcs’ birthday parties.

In their original packaging then I pop that inside a food bag

Biscuits in an old Quality Street tub and crackers in an old Celebrations tub. Works for me!

The actual problem in our house is actually keeping the cheese long enough to put on a cracker!

This. Buy a nice tin of them at Christmas. Then refill that forever more.

In their packets with bag clips to seal them, then inside a clear storage box in a cupboard to stop them falling over. At Christmas if we get one of those boxes with several types in that you can't reseal they get transferred to a biscuit tin.

In an old Christmas biscuit tin. They're never out on display so it's just about keeping them crispy for as long as possible.

In an airtight plastic box, one of those with clips for a really tight seal. We don’t eat a lot of biscuit, I can keep them for weeks loose in one of these boxes ( and you can see what they are),

i once left a packet of TUC for six months in our house in France, by mistake . When we came back I found them I expected them to be mouldy or at least soft. They were absolutely perfect, crisp, clean ( we didn’t eat them though, just in case, but the birds were very pleased we were back).

At Christmas when we have the boxes I keep them in a square Jacobs cracker tin. For everyday use an Oxo container. I think John Lewis do their own version
