I'm looking to better organize my cupboards. I'm looking for a container set that is plastic, rectangler, and maybe one that has the scoop on the side of the container & something I can buy at a store vs. online. These containers will be kept in the cupboard for things such as flour, sugar, rice, & pasta. Right now I'm storing these things in ziplock plastic bags which is a pain & they get lost in the back of the cupboard. Any recommendations?
I've checked Sam's Club and they didn't have anything that I liked in their store. I'm going to be getting a Costco membership soon & thought maybe they may have something along these lines? Does anyone know? We also have an Ikea in our area as well so I can go there if needed. I just don't feel like driving around town looking & of course what they have on their websites they don't always carry in their stores.

Tupperware all the way. I have picked up several pieces in thrift stores.
I use Snapware. I've found all my pieces at Ross for not much money. They frequently have different sizes all at one time, tho I've added pieces as I've needed them. I like them better than either Tupperware and Rubbermaid because they have more square shapes. They are close to the same diameter top and bottom. The lids snap on and there is a section that opens up so you don't have to take the entire top off to pour out the contents.
I use Rubbermaid. They don't have scoops on the side, but they are very affordable. They come in all shapes and sizes, and they work just fine. I've seen 30 piece sets on sale for $9.
tupperware - you can buy them on ebay for less...

Not sure where you are here in DC but there is a big one in Tyson's corner.
Do you have a Container Store? Lots of choices.

Not rectangular...but I have 5 of these and I am thinking about getting more. They are great for rice, short pasta(we also have the spaghetti jar from ikea), popcorn, sugar, cereal... I do buy a lot of bulk foods so these come in handy.
I have them out on the counter now, but we used to keep them in the cupboard... the only downside is that they don't stack well.
Tupperware, the brand Tupperware not the fake stuff
