Yes, it is pretty much impossibleThese small, softs fruits are meant to be eaten as soon as you bring them home, or within a few daysIf you want to have strawberries for a longer time, then buy frozen ones Some fruits store better than othersYou can keep apples for a pretty long time in the crisper drawer of your refrigeratorBut the entire point of eating fresh fruit is to eat it when it is fresh, and not to attempt to store it for a long timeThat is what canned, frozen and dried fruits are forIf you try to store fresh fruits for a long time, the nutritional value decreases, even if it does not spoil.

The main thing are to store them correctly and eat the ones that will go off the fastest first, and perhaps limit your options a littlegrapes and kiwifruit will easily last a week or longer in the crisper, with apples and pears, cherries, plumsBananas will last for a week left out and in a cool spot.
