I cheat. I only buy stuff the minute before I actually want or need it, but this only works when you live a 30 second walk from a grocery store.

At that point, why bring stuff into my fridge for me to plan around, when I can treat the grocer like it's my fridge? Time to cook? Takes me 10 minutes to come back with exactly what I need, and then I instantly use it. Doesn't even go into the fridge.

Also, potatoes last longer than you might think. They are still fine to eat for several days after they sprout. Just break the sprouts off and prepare them like normal. Because of this they are one of the few things I keep in my fridge all the time.
