    When you get them home, rinse them in 1 part vinegar:10 parts water. Soak them for 10 minutes and rinse with water to get the vinegar taste off then pat completely dry with paper towel. They will last 2-3 weeks in your fridge.

    EDIT- you can do this with all berries, cherries, etc.

    The mold probably lives in your fridge--I've had fridges like that. Molds are pretty amazing that way, they can live anywhere. So you could try a thorough airing out and cleaning of the fridge, but it might not help.

    I try to eat fruit fast, and I buy it frozen during the off-season (all but a month out of the year for most temperate climate fruit).
