Makes no sense to me having a freezer running in the winter when there is an unending supply of cold air only feet away.

During the coldest part of winter my wife will often just shelve refrigerated items in the garage to keep them cold. There's weeks when it's colder out there, than in our fridge.

You heat the inside of you house which is a large box. Then you refrigerate a small box inside the larger one for food storage. There is something wrong with that.

You can also put an old refrigerator out there. It won’t have to work very hard, but it will keep a more stable temp.
