    i just pitched peas from 2002, weevilly matzoh, corn meal and pasta.
    11% gross to retirement
    10% takehome to tithe and offerings
    emergency fund maintained at 3000(works for me)
    credit card debt 7500
    mortgage free
    freedom accounts/sinking funds that ebb and flow
    then live on the rest!

    i am trying something new. LDS church advises savings or debt repayment should be the same as the tithe. 10% each.

    I spent yesterday inventorying mine and designing an Excel spreadsheet so I can track it better. Only found ONE item that expired in 2006, but it was a packet of dry spices, so I used it.

    I don't write mine down because I'm a compulsive cabinet rearranger. It drives my fiance nuts. I'm constantly switching things around in my cabinets. I don't know where this comes from because I'm not like this with anything else. I use to never make a list for grocery shopping but fiance is a list person so I make one to pacify him when he adds something to my list( in my head).
