Who has a stock pile

Middy

I have loads of:
. Rice
. Pasta
. Coke
. Bacardi - 3.5 litres
. Wine
. Toiletries - I buy antiperspirant and shower gel when I see it it being discontinued. Bought some Original Source shower gel for 62p and large cans of Dove anti-p for 85p the other week
. Toilet roll. I bought 18 more rolls yesterday. I live alone and got 4 in the bathroom and 27 in my cupboard
. Fish fingers - bought about 7 boxes of 20 fish fingers when they were down to 25p each. That's 35 fish finger butties there.
. Washing liquid. I have 5 unopened bottles of washing liquid. Adding the number of washes on the bottles up comes to 159. I never use the recommended amount. That will be about 215-225 washes there. Almost a year's washing liquid there. I had a coupon for £1.50 off Fairy and the small gel bottles were £3 each. On top of that 15% staff discount, I bought that for £1.05!

My friend is even worse!

Her DH had to buy a bench that has storage underneath the seat for her cleaning stuff to replace a bench that took a beating with the past two winters' weather. She has one of those 4 drawer towers like this to store her toiletries. When she goes shopping with me, I tell her no more cleaning stuff or toiletries as her dh will go nuts if she buys more! She buys more when she is shopping alone. Her DH encourages her to go shopping with me! Also whenever she goes into a shop and sees 4 pack Branston Beans at £1.50 or less (or offers like buy 2 and get 2 free individual tins) - she buys 12 tins and you could build a house with the number of tins in her garage!

Hi Lynsey where do you get all your coupons

Most of them from MSE and coupons thread HERE

Don't worry about the great ones you've missed, concentrate on currently available and new coupons.
Some you get from supermarket free mags and email offers etc.

Good luck.

Has anyone seen extreme couponing they have massive stockpiles not sure I would want to go to that extreme and have all that extra stuff I wasn't going to use. but would like to get some of the coupons they get in america

They seem to have so many more coupons than we do - and the shops seem to take many more in a transaction than we can.

I am still reeling from the guy who got $1,800 worth of stuff for nothing! Can't see any of our supermarkets allowing that.

Mind you - I saw one woman who had hundreds and hundreds of dollars worth of medicines. Sore throat medicine, headache remedies etc. But how will she ever get to use them before they go way out of date?

And really - who needs hundreds and hundreds (literally) of disposable razors etc?

A good, fun programme to watch though!

. Garage?
. Shed?
. Spare bedroom?
. Under the bed?
. Relatives or friends' house?
. anywhere else?

I store mine in the cupboards in the kitchen, cupboards on my landing, toiletries in a cupboard in my bedroom and for the naughty things I stock up on such as the 2 finger orange Kit Kats for 47p and the Sainsburys' coconut chocolate spread (I have expressed my disappointment in my employee discontinuing them) in my bed divan drawer, which I need to move my bedside table (and to remove the stuff on top first) to get to the drawer.

I keep mine in a integral garage I have shelves on the wall and garage shelving systems if I need them. I keep a freezer in garage (upright) before I moved house I got some very large plastic boxes and kept tins and non permissible food in them

I been buying in bulk for around 15 years now saved me a small fortune.
