    I'm doing this too... I have 5 months of Loo Roll and 8 months of Kitchen Roll, 6 months deodrant, and shampoo, and washing liquid, 3 months washing powder.... and a couple of months of canned goods and some perishable goods too!

    My freezer is so full I couldn't do my normal butchers shop this time!

    I just had to re-arrange the games cupboard to store the loo roll!!

    that is some serious stocking up
    Trinidad - I have a number of needs. Don't shoot me down if i get something wrong!!
  • that is some serious stocking up

    Thank You :D

    I read this article about the best way to shop and keep prices down is to bulk buy when things are on offer. I have a list of items I do not buy unless it's on offer.

    The offers are REALLY good at the moment. I works out that I have saved £90 on these purchases!
    We spend money we don't have, on things that we don't need, to impress people we don't like. I don't and I'm happy!

    Thank god it's not just me!! My kids when they visit think I'm absolutely mad, as they wade their way through packets of loo paper and kitchen towel. I had a seriously bad time at Christmas when they accused me of mad-bag-lady hoarding.
  • I have just about finished all the shampoo , conditioner, deodorant and mouthwash from the Tesco glitch which must have been a couple of years ago now, I still have a cupboard full of bleach, Persil and baked beans.

    Post 17 what's that all about??? Does anyone understand it?

    I thought 16 tins of beans was a lot but 60 - phew- that is so cool ;)

    I've got 57 loo rolls, is that enough?

    Something wrong with the maths there!

    Personally, I am wondering what to do with the 60 tins of Branston beans I bought when they were 4 for a quid.

    I got a bit carried away :o.

    :rotfl: Try Netto - they're only £1.39 usually before a quid offer sometimes. Better than some of the big boys who still charge around £2.40....
