Just passing along the great thing I found at the grocery store. I was looking for a larger ziplock bag to store UFO's. 1 gallon is too small and the storage ones were too big. They now have 2 gallon size that is just perfect for this....and lots of other things. Walmart had them in our town but looked in a neighboring store and no luck.

I love the 2 gallon size bags. I don't use them a ton but they sure are handy for UFO's and Loaves of homemade bread, a Plate full of cookies. I think you can even fit a cake pan into one of those. I try to have them on hand.

I use the 2 gallon size a lot. It holds a casserole dish so no more covering with plastic wrap, just put the whole dish in the bag to store in fridge.
