How do you freeze them?

I individually wrap each one in saran wrap then put them all into a gallon size zip lock bag.

I have a big green box from Deb Meyers---of green bags fame--I load ours up in them. I buy a baker dozen of bagels from Panera on their bagel Tuesday.-- or will use a ziplock bag too--we go thru them pretty fast so no chance of freezer burn

I just stick the whole sleeve of bagels in the freezer. They get eaten pretty fast. They'll keep in the fridge a couple of weeks, except the blueberry mold pretty fast.

The bagel guy says to just put the bag in the freezer when they come. That's what I do and they do very well.k

You know, I never thought about freezing bagels before, learn alot from these forums. My favorite bagel is the Jalapeno/cheddar with cream cheese. When I was working a co-worker once in awhile would bring in Cinnamon Crunch bagels from Panera Bread, those were delicious!

I used to just put the bag in the freezer, and I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the bagels really didn't get freezer burned. However, I found that I was always shifting things around to allow them to have vertical space and not get smashed, so I started putting them in these LocknLocks instead (five per container) so they could sit under all the other things in my always-full freezer:

Whoa, I can't believe the price is $32 on this set right now! I have three sets and paid much less—though to be fair, the most recent two sets were the Black Friday Sale price of $19.99 with free shipping, which was why I stocked up. If you can, I'd definitely recommend waiting until the next LocknLock sale to see if the price drops (this tends to happen about once per month).

ETA: Each rectangle container also fits four Jimmy the Baker cinnamon rolls with some room to spare; I take zip-top snack bags and fill them with icing for the rolls (from the tub provided) and then put the bags in the container so it's easy to take a roll and a bag to heat/thaw and enjoy...
