What are you stocking up on right now?

We ate the food in our deep freeze before we moved last November, so we've been slowly filling it back up with good quality meats - a turkey here, a ham there. I've got it about 2/3 full. I've also been re-purposing plastic drink bottles by cleaning them, filling them with water to about 2/3 full, and freezing them. A full freezer uses much less energy than an empty one, and if something happens and we don't have water, there's a good water source for awhile.

Nothing, till this stupid state shut-down is over and my husband can go back to work. Till then, no income for us.

Spirit Deer, hope the shut down ends soon. My DH works for the state too.

Basic staples are what I buy most to stock up on. HBA's would be a close runner up...
I usually wait until they've reached a good sale price and try to match coupons with that...love getting great deals!

Right now I am stocking up on Kool aid, for homemade Lemishine and school supplies.

No stockpiling right now. For me, it's the 'lean' summer month one of two (I work for a school afterschool program). I am working - at our July, 'daycamp'. It's not full $, but every little bit helps. Going through the freezers and madly rotating supply for meals.

Yesterday, I bought 10 cans of Chef Boyardee pasta for .69 a can. Dh loves this as an occasional snack.

I would LOVE to be stocking up right now but am having a hard time finding anything low enough to be a "stock up" price!

**Daisygirl** · 07-09-2011, 10:35 AM

Peanut butter, coffee, tea, sugar and flour.

**Judi Dial** · 07-09-2011, 10:35 AM

My last "stock up" was split peas, .69 a lb. Won't use 'em till winter, but they don't go bad easily, so I'm all set.

Just bought 4 bags Tully's coffee to add to my pantry.

Not finding a lot of stock up prices lately.

Ended up finding a few things today! I'm finding I have to really search for the deals because the loss leaders are usually not that great any more. Walgreens has a store coupon for three 14 oz. Ajax cleansers for $1.00, got those, and a rain check for two free toothbrushes. Also stocked up on Old Orchard frozen juice for $1.00, got 12!
