Stocking Up The Cupboards.

[Georgiesmum]

Is there anything that you stock up with that the rest of the family think is bonkers?
Ive always got large amounts of kitchen towels and toilet rolls , and i must have 30 bars of soap underneath the sink in the bathroom.
Ibuy up the kitchen towels and toilet rolls whenever i get taken to lidl, which is usually about every three months.

OCD by any chance?

Mind you, the way my family gets through toilet rolls, I couldn't survive buying them at three month intervals.

We go to Aldi and Lidl about once every 3 weeks and I stock up on all those items Georgiesmum... And I also take loads of them when I visit the kids, they never have full stock cupboards and it drives me nuts, I'm sure I drive them nuts as well ;o)

[cazzz1975]

yes, I go through phases where I buy too much of one particular item, a few years ago it was salt, more recently its coffee!

[tiggerblue10]

Yes. Toilet roll and handwash. I'm a bit OCD with hand washing. I get the 24 pack Cushelle rolls from Lidl when they're on special offer.

It is an excellent idea to stock up on bars of soap. The longer you keep them, the more they dry out, and the less they go slimy and slushy on the edge of the basin. Even better if you buy scented soap and dry the bars amongst the laundry or underwear to scent them.

[Hopkirk]

Yes, but 30 bars?

That's laying in for a siege.

[Greedyfly]

I also stockpile. I just but things we will always use when they are on a good offer. Toilet rolls for example.

[Georgiesmum]

Yes, ive always kept a good store cupboard. The reason i buy so many is i like the ones from lidls, the ones in the pink pack. they are cheap also i cant get
to lidls very often. It isnt a problem storing them, they just go on the bed in the spare room. I dont stock up like that with any other items.

I remember one Aber who bought a years supply of toilet rolls in one hit, who knows where they put them all !

[corylus]

I have a fine collection of toothbrushes and toothpaste all bought at @ £1 each whenever I spot them in pharmacies and on special offer in supermarkets.

Toilet Rolls and Ground Coffee.

[granny grump]

My stocks are toilet rolls; hand wash and scented candles - My dear Mum used to say as she was stockpiling "It won't eat anything"

[rowanwitch]

Toilet rolls, tissues, teabags and pataks curry paste...

[ferlew]

Toiletries, when they are on BOGOF at the Co-op, that way I can help son 2 and my sis out.

[DaisyNonna]

Granny, that was one of my mum's expressions. Unfortunately have very little storage space.

[DTCwordfan]

Wine.....Taylors Scottish Breakfast Tea (as it doesn't seem to be available down here).

[vodkancoke]

Teabags, bleach, Flash,cleaning cloths and cling-film!

[Caran]

Toilet rolls and bold powder. I shop around and buy at good prices. Soap powder usually on line and in bulk.
