    Here's a tip from me: watch yourself that having a lot of something doesn't make you wasteful of it. Sounds silly but it is surprisingly easy to feel "too comfortable" about having loads of x,y,z around and then you can stop paying attention to how much you use. I do this with shampoo. Before I had a stockpile of it, I used like 1 tsp of it (I have really short hair). Now that I have a stockpile, I sometimes find myself using 1 tbsp of it. Bad me!!!
