I'd also like some confirmation on this-- I figured it would become ruined when froze, like lettuce does, and any other vegetable that contains a lot of water in its cells-- the water expands when frozen, the cells explode, and you get limp, glassy-looking lettuce. I always assumed celery would be the same.
I will try wrapping it in foil, however, nice idea. It does get limp quickly. Storing celery sticks upright in a cup of water also keeps them crisp and fresh.

Thanks everyone for all your thoughts.
the reason why I got a huge celery even though I have no idea what to do with it, is that I get these fruit orders for $40 where they give you a whole bunch of stuff worth about $80. So it's worth it money-wise if you're the type of person that can cook w/ any ingredient.
normally I can, but celery stumps me!
thanks again!

I've never heard of a "fruit order"-- what do you do, call the store, tell them what you want, and it gets delivered? Does this exist in Manhattan or only in more heimishe neighborhoods? It sounds like a great deal, since I'm constantly running out multiple times a week to get fruits and veggies.

I live in Australia. There is a company here that sources F & V each week and they make up orders (to their liking) to send out to pple who 'subscribe.' every week I get a $40 order and I get abt $80 worth of F&V for only forty bucks. the reason why it is so cheap is that they do not stock EVERYTHING and then have to throw away stock that pple don't buy. so they give you the basics Cucumbers, tomatoes, onions potatoes and they pick the rest
so this week, I got a celery.

I hate celery, I never buy it. I would swap it with somebody for some carrots.
