I purchased a bagful of both from Costco and got to work on the onions slicing off both ends and peeling off the skins. Because of their size, I quarter them.
I love my "AS SEEN ON TV" Vidalia Chop Wizard. This thing is AWESOME! I paid $19.99 for it at Target, a bit much I know, but it is so worth it to me! And it comes with two blade sizes which is great and is dishwasher safe.
Other items I always store in my freezer: Shredded cheese, sliced cheese, 2% milk, bacon, cream cheese, bread, chicken, meat, fish, and anything else that will freeze goes in.
It's what works for me.
