Oh, I sort of meant what brand do you buy, and what size? Because I work at Baker's delight (where we do a full size loaf and half loaves) and I know that our bread only lasts for a day, officially, and after that it's your own risk. That's just because we don't put any sort of preservatives in it, though. If you're buying something of a "lower grade" (which you probably are because our shit's expensive and students, by definition, cannot afford our overpricing), I'm probably not the best person to ask because I think everything but our bread is gross. Except Helga's... that stuff is goo-ood. And the stuff from our local korean? bakery; also top notch. But I digress... what I meant to get to was that if your bread only officially lasts for one day, you should be putting it in the fridge or freezer THAT NIGHT. You can always have cold bread from the fridge as a midnight snack (hell, I've already had two slices of wholemeal country grain with barbeque sauce tonight!), and you can always toast both frozen and refrigerated bread. Our bread lasts for a week in the fridge, and for between one and three months in the freezer, so that's all smooth sailling for you.
Also, make sure you always get all the air out of the bag you're putting your bread in - air is your bread's enemy.
