Kmart shopper's ‘perfect’ kitchen hack using unusual $12 item: 'Love mine'

A Kmart shopper has just shared a genius way to organise your coffee and tea station in the kitchen. The budget retailer has quickly become the go-to place for shoppers looking for storage and organisational solutions.

If you’re sick of using canisters to store coffee and tea, why not grab Kmart’s $12 modular brush storage box? The clear box comes with a lid attached by a hinge and is intended for makeup brush storage.

Since it’s modular, you can actually use other modular options to stack multiple products together, creating a larger and customised setup. It’s also great that it’s see-through, so you can easily view the product inside.

“Kmart’s $12 makeup brush storage box fits the coffee sachets perfectly, it will hold 30 easy,” the shopper wrote on a Kmart Facebook group. “It’s such a good idea, [there are] so many uses for this product.”

In her snap of the product sitting on her kitchen bench, you can see many single serves of Nescafe’s creamy mocha drink in easy reach.

While the shopper used hers for just one type of coffee, you could actually use each compartment for a different drink – like coffee, tea, single servings of sugar, creamer etc.

Another Kmart fan shared their setup, with the bright idea of using the modular storage container for different types of coffee pods.

Kmart fans went wild over the makeup storage container idea, with some convinced they needed this item in their house.

“They [can] hold four different types of tea and coffee, I love mine,” one person wrote.

“Oh wow, I love that idea as we use pods and sachets in this house as we have a coffee corner,” another said.

“That’s actually a really cool idea. Might have to do this myself lol,” a third chimed in.

“Not that I needed another thing in my house, but love this! Brought pretty canisters but they won’t close, so this is perfect,” another added.

There’s a modular double tiered stand which would set you back just $7, and would be a great place to stack spices or seasonings. Looking for a clear container to store some snacks? The $18 tall clear drawer would do the trick.
