CantWait replied: I voted once a week, but it's actually more like once every 2 weeks when I do a grocery shopping trip.
Boys r us replied: I **TRY** to do it every Saturday..but sometimes if we get super busy it has to wait a little longer. Mine gets so full of clutter that it can't go much longer than a week b/c there would be no more room for new groceries. No one in our house eats left overs, yet every night I continue to dirty tupperware and put the leftovers in the fridge..knowing in a few days, I'm going to be throwing it out anyhow!
My2Beauties replied: I am terrible about cleaning out our fridge. We just cleaned it out the other day and we had 2 liter of Mt Dew in there for months Now leftovers and stuff get cleaned out within a couple days but stuff like that, 2 liters, juice boxes, stuff in a can or pudding or something like that - stays in there forever if it doesn't get eaten.
Nina J replied: Once a week when I do the grocery shopping. Sometimes more if I need to.
Bee_Kay replied: I also have glass shelves and clear bins... you can see EVERY SPOT!!
~~*Missi*~~ replied: i am very OCD when it comes to cleaning so I do it every other day or so. its jsut me I am ANAL lol
mummy2girls replied: i have to admit i do it if i see body parts appearing. I opened the crisper and i swear a arm tryed grabbing my hand:) Im bad i know but that is the most hated job ever for me...LOL
redchief replied: Either we clean it when the health department threatens action or when the milk won't fit.
mummy2girls replied: im right there with you...LOL
mckayleesmom replied: I try to clean out old food and stuff everytime I grocery shop and I usually super clean it once a month...pull out the drawers and glass and scrub.
Brias3 replied: I'm constantly wiping it out but do a good clean of the shelves every few days. I try to cut down on the mess in there by following up after spills and the kids but it gets impossible!
MyBrownEyedBoy replied: Okay, I go through and throw out nasty stuff about once a week or so. However in the 3 years we've been in this house, I have only cleaned the shelves off twice. Kimberley, now I think I have to do this next tidy up Tuesday. Thanks a million. LOL
~Roo'sMama~ replied: LOL! I'm the only "never". I don't think I have cleaned out the fridge since we bought it almost 2 years ago. Dh did it once though when there had been thanksgiving leftovers in it for a few months. 
Other than taking out an old container of leftovers here and there I don't clean it - it doesn't get dirty.
holley79 replied: Usually when I do my BIG shopping trip and have run out of room in the fridge.
C&K*s Mommie replied: I toss weekly or so, but I do not scrub it clean, unless there is a mess to be cleaned.
luvmykids replied: I have the glass shelves too, ugh! It got pretty bad last week, I was sure there was another life form in there, but I'm regularly pretty good about it, I wipe out different parts on different days, so it never seems like one huge chore.
3xsthefun replied: I empty out the old stuff out of it about every 2 weeks before I go grocery shopping. I don't actually wipe it out that much, probably once a month.
coasterqueen replied: I clean it out in regards to food items whenever I see one that needs tossed. As far as cleaning the shelves I clean them when they really get bad, which honestly isn't very often at all. We have the glass shelves and see through bins, but our fridge stays pretty clean. Maybe because I'm not home all day, who knows.
Edward's Mommy replied: I either clean it out once a month or when I need tupperware dishes. Whichever comes first!
kit_kats_mom replied: I toss & rearrange food before we go grocery shopping but the maid gives it a good interior scrubdown every other week
My3LilMonkeys replied: Kelly, I"m right there with you! I cleaned our last fridge twice - once about 2 weeks after we got it and once when we got rid of it b/c I was embarrassed that FIL would open it when he was getting rid of it.
Our Lil' Family replied: DH refuses to throw away food so he eats whatever is in it. As for cleaning the shelves and bins...whenever it's gotten too bad...which like others have said, doesn't seem to be that often.
