Does anybody stockpile?
I have items stocked on top of my kitchen cabinets. Those are mostly items ( toilerties and cleaning supplies) that are free after rebate of coupon . It is organized. My Dh jokes that it looks like a grossery store.
My freezer if full of margarine and Sara Lee bread ( I bought butter to get free bread with coupon, so basicly for each 98c I got 2 lbs of margarine and one 24ounce bread). I had about 40 of those coupons. If we would stop buying food except for milk, juice and produce, we would be ok for the next 2-3 months. Now in the summer we use less milk and more juice.
My kids are set with almost all clothes for the next 3 yrs. I usually buy clothes a year ahead when they are 75-90% off ( usually february and september). I have lots of new socks and undies for me and Dh, enough for a few years.
I recently stocked up on diapers for my DD ( size4,34-pack for 4.99, plus, when I bought them, for each 2 packs I was getting free 8 oz package tomatoes with coupon).
I also have lots of fem pads which were free after rebates, I haven' actually paid for anything like that for about a year now.
Do you stockpile? Does it save you money? It does for me, because I buy stuff at the lowest possible price, because if I run out of something that I need today, it might not be able to get it at that price.
