Fresh Reminders Public Beta Launches

Welcome everyone to the first public beta of Fresh Reminders! We are so excited to get up and running here that we have released the best food storage tracking system to date so that everyone can start using it right away.

What is Fresh Reminders? Simply put, its a way to help you effortlessly remember when items in your 72-hour kits, 3-month supplies, or even long-term food storages will expire. What good does it do you if in a time of need you pull out something only to find it expired several months or even years ago? Avoid the problems of expired food by using Fresh Reminders to automatically send you emails three months before any item expires! Hassle-free, worry-free, that’s what we want!

During these opening days, we want to make sure we have all the kinks ironed out, because with something this new, there might still just be a few dust bunnies lying around. That’s why we need YOU! We are offering free, unlimited-item accounts for the next month to everyone who signs up! Curious to know how it might work? Sign up! Want to help squash some beta bugs? Sign up! We need your help.

So what are you waiting for? Give it a try! Type in an item from your food storage and its expiration date on the home page, and we’ll start doing the tracking for you. Thanks, and much more to come!
