If you buy fresh, don’t stockpile, and use up what you have first, you can get by with a relatively small, efficient fridge. A little research will inform you as to what veggies and fruits REALLY need to be refrigerated, vs in dark, cool storage or on your countertop.
We have an extra “dorm” fridge that only gets turned on during the holidays, and allows for spillover. Works for us.

Also don’t forget activated charcoal odor absorbing filters in refrigerator and freezers. Some new models have a built in activated charcoal filter, but most don’t and using a Fridge IT odor absorber will reduce moisture in the air, eliminate odors and reduce cross contamination of smells. This will help keep your food smelling and tasting fresher, longer.
