    Default Stockpiling gone wild...

    Its a sickness, really
    This is in addition to a 25 sq ft chest freezer that is FULL (I couldn't fit a hotdog in there if i tried!) We gotta eat our way through that before the move!!!

    Yup, the ACE boxes are filled with cereal, pasta, tea bags, etc...boxed items.

    I didn't just go out and buy this stuff, Intl Mom!! This is my stockpile that I'm packing up for moving. I'll take pictures of my nearly empty shelves later. They look so sad!

    But yes, I'm done stockpiling until we get settled into the new house. I'll pretty much only be buying milk, fresh produce and bread for the next two months.

    Pork & Beans were .30/can and the Chef Boyardee were .60 a can.

    My baked beans are famous in my MOMS group and I'm requested to bring them to every potluck ~ so I had to stock up, right?

    Chef Boyardee is not something I usually have in the house, but with Jason working so much I haven't been in the mood to cook for myself ~ dinner of champs, right?

    I hear you about the Chef Boyardee! I am not usually a fan, but this LAZY summer and at 0.60 per can, I am easily swayed. You should start a cookbook "A woman, a can of Chef Boyardee, ...." Sorry, I got nothin'!
    BS1 ~ $0/$1000

    How 'bout "A Woman, A can of Chef Boyardee, and a Hotplate"

    I can write the book right here:

    Open can of Ravioli, empty into pan and heat on hotplate, enjoy.
    Open can of Beefaroni, empty into pan and heat on hotplate, enjoy.
    Open can of Cheesburger Mac, emtpy into pan and heat on hotplate, enjoy.

    I'm gonna make MILLIONS!!!

    What a great cookbook! I think even I could make those gourmet treats!

    How about a chapter on Chunky soup?

    wow, you will not go hungry. If you`ve got to eat all that before you move . you better get started!
    If you can`t it all you need to before you move give some to
    your mom ,or your best friend , or your neighbor.
    I always get amazed when I look at the stock piles pictures .
    I wish I had room to do that.

    Good for you. These stockpiles add up quickly. But it's hard to pass up a great deal, isn't it?

    Great stockpile. Mine is getting bigger every week. We travel alot so we have a long stretch of time that we are gone. The problem is I can't pass up a deal anymore. I give lots of my deals to my stepson and DIL next door. How many boxes of cereal is too much? he he
