When I lived with my sister, she had the chest freezer half full of bread. All of it freezer burnt. Got to the point I had to make sure their was space before going shopping.
It you only rarely eat bread: Cut it up at put it in the freezer. Whenever you need a couple slices it’s easy to break off however many you need and pop them in a toaster for a couple minutes. If you’re packing a lunch you don’t even need the toaster, just make the lunch with frozen slices and they’ll be thawed in a couple hours :)
Bread, dear lord the bread.
I always need it the day after I throw it, which was already a few days past the expiry date in the fridge.

Freeze it. Toast as needed.
Keeping the bread in the fridge was your first mistake

The expiry date is for keeping on the counter also, if it’s not moldy just eat it…
Oh don’t worry, I make sure to throw it only after I say hi to the mold.
