I read this article in the November 2008 issue of Southern Living magazine, and thought it was a very innovative space and money-saving tip. I've flat packed and frozen leftovers with quart-sized Zip-locs, but sometimes it can be messy and the bags can stick together. I liked 
the idea of using boxes - to not only make the transfer process more secure, but also provide a good storage and space-saving shape.

"...Line a box with a large zip-top plastic freezer bag, folding the edges of the bag over the edges of the box (the way you would place a liner in a trash can), so that the box supports the bag when filled. Seal the bag, and freeze vertically while still inside the box. Once frozen, remove the filled bag from the box and stack horizontally. Downsize to smaller freezer bags and boxes for fewer servings."
