Place a coin... in a mug... in your freezer. Here’s why...

If traveling away from home, place a coin in a mug of ice in your freezer. Here’s why...

  Utilize this simple tip to make sure your freezer has been in perfect working order while you are away.

  Grab a mug, a coin and some water... fill the mug with water and allow it to freeze before placing your chosen coin on top.

  If all is well, the coin should remain perched on top of the ice... this will indicate that your freezer has been in perfect working order for the entire time.

  On the other hand... a coin located at the bottom of the ice is typically an indicator that the freezer quit working at some point.

  This lets you know that the food inside of the freezer is probably contaminated and will need to be thrown away.

  Meanwhile, if the coin is frozen in the center of the block of ice in the mug, this means that the freezer did go off for a bit and that your food is probably not spoiled.
