SiliTray, oh SiliTray. Did you do the job today? You squished the food pressed in between But not as bad as could have been The stretchy sheet goes flat like new But may need a dish wash or two The avocado left its mark "Boobies!", the 2cent chicks remarked While not real good, but not a fail They're not for me, a single male The trays, I mean. No, not the boobs (I've heard on men, they call 'em moobs) I used to work the retail trade For thirty years, how I was paid As manager, I'd dread the fall Was when I'd work hardest of all On Friday Black, twelve hours and more That whole weekend, forty hours in store Retired since then, those days l'd sure hate On Black Friday now, I don't shop and sleep late
Thanks so much. Just got a late holiday gift of six of these trays and two storage bags. I was clueless as had never heard of them. You helped make sense how to use these as well as precautions,
I also got two of the storage/freezer bags which at first I thought were some weird measuring cups lol...but before I rip them how do you work them and are they dishwasher safe by chance?
Very interesting, great space savers. I’m going to see where I can get these today. sounds like a bed bath and beyond trip...don’t do Black Friday anymore since on my own. Great
Interesting product. I am not sure if they are something that I would really use much though. My sister & I will do some shopping on Black Friday. It is fun, we don't go crazy though.
I can't see having a lot of use for those trays. Maybe if they were half the size? Nice, thorough review tho, thank you! QotD - My sister talked me into going Black Friday shopping back in the early 2000s when you had to wake up at 2am and wait in line until they opened the doors. NEVER AGAIN! We got a bad parking spot, we were hundreds of people back from the front door, there were no carts when we finally got inside the store, and the check out lines were ridiculous! My sanity is far more valuable than the money I saved!
I just saw these for the first time on TV last night. I was going to suggest you review them and you already have! Your review actually came up while I was trying to Google the item. The one's I saw were light blue. So maybe they've been updated? Or it's just a different brand? But I really want to try them.
Thanks for the review on these! I was looking at them but wasn't sure how sturdy they were. Not too sure about them. I think I will stick with saran wrap and butcher paper.
I have 2 sisters that are up at 2am to go to Black Friday shopping.....no thank you. I have done it in years past, but I agree, I don't think the deals are as good anymore. And the lines to check out are ridiculous.
How long they last is a good question because if they only last a dozen or so times thats a big hunk of plastic and you've done Mother Earth no favors. I have a nice set of pyrex with lids that i use, i also have beeswax wraps.
I would use them like Robin suggested, seasoning meats beforehand and then freezing. I’ve never done Black Friday shopping. I use to work in a flower shop and our day after thanksgiving was decorating restaurants for Christmas.
I'll stick to the plastic wrap and Rubbermaid bowls, they don't look like they stack every well and you'll need a zillion of them if you have a lot of kids and leftovers. as for shopping on Black Friday I'll go when they develop a working light-saber and it's legal to use it.
I’ve missed watching you ladies!! I only watch for the product reviews not the food and so glad to see you doing a product review !! Finally !!! Please bring more !!
This is one that will get a big old PASS from me. I own a dishwasher but haven't used it for anything but storage in over 10 years. They seem to take up space they don't deserve. I have a small kitchen and that space is valuable in my house. Plus the price, even with discounts, is more than I think it would be worth to me. Thanks for the review Ladies! :D
I’ve been shopping on Black Friday twice now. Once because walmart had a Pioneer Woman cookware set I wanted (didn’t get that night but someone returned one and a friend bought it for me and I paid her). The only other time was later in the day on Black Friday with my momma, for clothes for work.
I think , with the avocado and onions .... Common sense ☺️ it will be TOO thick to expect "no damage" on the lid at all lol. But it appears you guys reported that it shrinks back . I like the idea of this product for deli meats , meal prep for work , etc 👍🏽
Clever concept. It would be nice if it came in a variety of sizes for space saving. I would definitely give these a try. I don't do Black Friday. I prefer to either shop online or on another day
Thank you for the tray review. I would not spend money on those. and No, have never done the Black Friday shopper thing and never will. Those people are nuts!!!!!! I'm with Robin, I do the online thing. :) :) :) :)
it's a great concept but like many things the outcome is lot different maybe they would be good for a picnic for the baskets ??? great to see Robyn back she was kinda shy last video lol
Hi ladies thanks for reviewing a product. FYI I purchased one of those trays (red.) very disappointing. The lid wouldn’t attach to the bottom. I asked for a refund and they gave it to me. The concept was intriguing but it failed. QOD Absolutely NOT for Black Fridays! My life is more valuable then some stupid whatever. People will trample you in a heartbeat.💔
I work at jcpenney and its awful in at 12 midnight thurs to 12 in the afternoon Friday..No enjoyment for thanksgiving for me and we'd I'm on til prob past midnight setting signs it's awful been doing it for 15 years
I have been black Friday shopping twice, with about 20 years between them with the same person. I didn't like it the first time or the second time and hope I remember how awful it was so I never repeat again. I do Cyber Monday, though, but always with a specific thing in mind. This year I am looking for a deal on an Instapot.
I shopped wal Mart one Black Friday never again. So many rude people. It was sad. On line yes you get better deals the closer u get to Christmas that is when we shop.
It kind of looks like a waste of space. I'd just use a vacuum food sealer, way less space used. 2c chicks always rock even when you review silly stuff like this :D
We have TG dinner for about 20.arrival is 2 or 3 .dinner somewhere around 5. There a a typical few that leave for some/any mall at 6-just to get a parking spot.the stores don’t open for at least 3 hours.then they call wifey Friday morning bragging about the great deal on wrapping paper.
I think they call it Black Friday because no matter how charitable your spirit throughout the year, you will come home hating humanity. Twenty five days isn’t enough to get back into the Christmas spirit after an experience like that. What a compliment to the holiday season. I think the corporate decision makers do this just to show us how low a price they can set for us to pop a stranger in the mouth. There’s a department store in Australia where women can get a big discount on a single item if they come into the store naked. It’s the same mob scene. I don’t know what all those guys were there for.
Something tells me that these won't last nearly long enough to justify the price (even on sale). I'll stick to vacuum sealer bags to freeze and regular plastic storage containers in the fridge. QOTD: I went once years ago when the whole crazy Black Friday thing was just getting started---never went again.
QOTD, Never it too early in the morning for me to be awake, or its very late say like midnight and by then ive had a few beers in me and its not a good thing to shop after a few beers
The SiliTray seems to take up to much place for me. I used to be so into Black Friday shopping, but now I don’t get up at the crack of dawn, i will just go later and if i get what i want cool if not then no biggie. I don’t try and fit the crowd anymore
After buying 8 of these trays im finding them totally useless and $80 down the drain they dont lock once I put my casserole into 4 different meal lots looks like they are all heading to the dump 😢 they dont lock after putting item inside all I got was very frustrated and very sore fingers after trying for 30 minutes I gave up and put all my food into my old plastic containers that are way more user-friendly 😢 also there's nothing to stop leakage around the sides of the item and no seal to stop leaking and air getting inside I would think this is way your avocado went dark in color
I would not purchase the SiliTray because I use a vacuum sealer. There are vacuum dishes or bowls, available that are much cheaper and better than these items. I like to vacuum seal food and sous vide them later.
Yes I have done black friday a couple of times, the world has come to a place where people are willing to kill you for a TV and I'm not about that life.
They are pricey, but maybe if they lasted a long time it would be worth it. NO black Friday shopping for me unless its online, but typically not even that. I dont want any part of those crazy crowds.
Hi, I'm the inventor of Clever tray and you show/offer one of the 25 different copies that you can find on instagram, other face book, wish, aliexpress advertizing… Unfortunatly produced with low quality and unproper plastic finishing. Our original Clever tray is not distributed via those platforms. Sebastien duhamel from Genius ideas.
Ladies... not a bad idea but they sure take up a lot of space! Especially if I wanted to protect just half an avocado. Answer of the day: never leave the house on Black Friday! Bad traffic, bargain hunters everywhere. If you have to, leave the kids at home! 😨
When the weather is ok, my husband and I go mostly to watch the crowds. We feel it is cheep entertainment, just the price of a drink (coke or so) and the gas to get where ever.
Hi, I see that Robbin was not as quite in this video compared to the last video. No, I do not go black Friday shopping nor do I ever plan to go black Friday shopping.
i got mine on wish for $4.00 each. they arrived in the mail and are EXTREMELY cheap! do not spend $18 for 2 trays. this is CHEAP, CHEAP, CHEAP plastic. on day one, my plastic broke. i did replace with saran wrap but defeats teh purpose. These are CRAZY EXPENSIVE and CRAZY CHEAP!!! awful, awful, awful. DON'T WASTE YOUR GOOD MONEY! much better products out there.
I'm thinking there are too many other simpler and cheaper products that work better. I trust vacuum air-removal of products I put in the freezer, no freezer burn, then disposing of the packaging when retrieved.
These guys hired us to redesign their website and didn't pay. The owner itself is playing dirty in life, Karma will hunt you down I tell ya. They just bought these products from AliExpress for $6. Just go and buy there not on their site.
