Answer 1

I put them in the fridge, out of the bag.

Answer 2

in bowl on counter

Answer 3

Definitely not in the fridge, they will loose their flavor.  Sitting out...not in a bag.

Answer 4

I leave mine sitting out but I put a towel under them and put one on top to cover from light to help them last longer.  

Answer 5

Not in a plastic bag, they tend to dehydrate and go yucky quicker.

Answer 6

i put them in the fridge in a bag because they last longer

Answer 7

leave them out... you arent supposed to refrigerate tomatoes. if you buy the packaged tomatoes, it says on there not to refrigerate them. it causes them to lose their flavor.  

Answer 8

I leave them in the bag and put them in the fridge.  You don't have to put them in the fridge, but they last longer.  If they aren't completely ripe when you get them, it helps to leave them out a day or two before refridgerating them.  The cold stops the riping process.

Answer 9

Never store tomatoes in the fridge.  I leave mine in a bowl on the counter
