I stock pile things that I use often when they are on sale. I need to get better organized to scour the flyers each week to ensure I don't miss any great deals! Right now I do it only adhoc, but I want to try to cut down my grocery budget so this will be a good habit I need to start!debt debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06166825965827672820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573001530166413689.post-1222047144692901192014-04-23T08:16:18.946-05:002014-04-23T08:16:18.946-05:00Thanks Hayley!

I built mine one product at a time, ie one month I stocked up on TP, the next on paper towels, etc as they went on sale and good coupons were available. Don't stock up if it something you don't use regularly or if it's not a good deal.shoeaholicnomorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822616952729905352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573001530166413689.post-76614426475471519612014-04-23T05:59:41.267-05:002014-04-23T05:59:41.267-05:00I need to get myself a grocery stock like this.

Since this pic was taken (it's a couple months old) I've been eating my cereal stash down and it's quite a bit smaller now. I did get these boxes for about $0.50 each, making them a better deal than the store brand cereal in my local grocery store. Thanks for weighing in!shoeaholicnomorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822616952729905352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573001530166413689.post-68321416765481018392014-04-22T14:21:29.819-05:002014-04-22T14:21:29.819-05:00I'm eying down your boxes of Special K.

It saves money and can save your butt if you run into a situation where you really don't have money for X,Y,Z. At least you already have it and don't need to spend money on it. Heck, you also have the option to eat Special K for a few months and save a few dollars on breakfast food.Dijahhttp://www.debtisab.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573001530166413689.post-87900021242448514702014-04-22T12:56:37.011-05:002014-04-22T12:56:37.011-05:00You are absolutely correct!

I only shop in bulk if it makes sense and sharing bulk purchases with another person really helps you both to take advantage of the deal without going completely overboard on your supply of each item.shoeaholicnomorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822616952729905352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573001530166413689.post-14483821932440077592014-04-22T12:55:31.292-05:002014-04-22T12:55:31.292-05:00I'll have to check that book out.

I don't want to turn my garage or entire basement into a "grocery store" like some of the couponers you see on the TLC show. That's just crazy!shoeaholicnomorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822616952729905352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573001530166413689.post-83400459090613618462014-04-22T11:15:21.890-05:002014-04-22T11:15:21.890-05:00I like buying in bulk when it makes sense to do so...I like buying in bulk when it makes sense to do so. I did a Costco run with my mom over the weekend and we split a pack of paper towels, and she gave me some toilet paper and boxes of tissues she had already purchased. I was comparing prices and Costco was coming out ahead on most household items. If it's not going to go bad, I think it usually does save time and money. I'd rather make one stop for two or three months' worth than run out every month.

For me, as long as you have the sufficient storage and it doesn't spill over into your kitchen cupboards or fridge, then why not have 1,000 or so of TP. Also, dog and cat stuff as well. I have a cat and I have at least two tubs of litter. If you use a product religiously, then I would stock up :)<br /><br />Cheers,<br />JenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
