Do I really need a Freezer?

Further to the canny shopping thread. I would have space in my sunny kitchen for a small table if I got rid of my fridge freezer and just had a fridge. We have a weekly Ocado delivery and often have to remind ourselves to use things from the freezer. I am not a cook or baker so its just veg, chips, yorkshire puds and the odd ready meal in there in any case. Would you manage without one? If I got rid of it and it was a mistake we could always put one in the garage. Gosh, sorry this is a boring question isnt it!

Only two of us here however we have fridge freezer in the kitchen and two small freezers in the shed ( no garage here)
We have two small dogs who eat raw complete which takes up quite a bit of space in one. I like to have plenty of fruit and vegetables and space for bread if it is yellow stickered as well.

I couldn't do without mine. In fact, we have three - one is our main fridge/freezer, but we also have a standalone freezer in the kitchen which is mainly used to freeze veg from the garden to keep us going throughout the winter. We also have another standalone freezer in one of the garden sheds which is kept solely to store our dog's raw food.
