The guy uses hanging or stacking baskets to put his food in. They're really for freezers, so they fit. He puts his most-used stuff in the top baskets and least-used ones in the bottom baskets.

Some look like this: http://stockingthelarder.blogspot.com/2009/04/how-i-organized-my-chest-freezer.html Sometimes you can find them on Craigslist, and you might be able to find them at a place that accepts discarded freezers/refrigerators.

That's a lot of savings for a little bit of inconvenience.
