I'm disabled and never know when a flare-up will through shopping plans out the window. I try to keep the big freezer stocked and with prices going through the roof, I'm trying to stock it back up as it got really emptied out during the winter when I felt the worse. It is great to know that I have things on had and don't need to make a 9 mile round trip to the nearest store, much less the 25 mile round trip to the cheapest store. The nearest store had Minute Maid concentrated OJ for $2.49. Same size at Walmart $1.79 I stocked up even though I still think that is a high price, but a 70 cent savings per can. I plan on stocking up on ground beef this week too as it is on sale this week at a price we don't see very often.

As much as possible I think we should keep stocked up with food and necessities as you never know when a problem will happen and you can't get to the store or the store isn't available to shop at.
