    I have a massive store cupboard. I like to stockpile things that we use that are on special offer, so that i dont have to buy them until they are on special again, like the cushelle toilet rolls at Morrisons, the Tesco 4p peas, the 20p mincemeat, to name but a few. I dont do it for survival purposes, but bargain shopping. I dont spend much on shopping anymore, because i have such a great stock.
    SD, Can I ask how much the Cushelle goes down to and for how many rolls please.
    I don't often use Morrisons.
    £36/£240
    £5522

    That's like me all of the above are true. If I can stay where I am, I have a lovely store, can actually stop buying any more now and replace like for like if I have to move and downsize I hope I can find space for my present store but I don't mind being on my own if it is in rooms you normally live in like a living room or bedroom, if it saves me money and I can consider covering it with a curtain or if they'll allow me put up shelves and then have a curtain across...

    I don't see it as strange or dead money, it offers variety in meals, saves me money and is safety net.

    I won't repeat some of the bargains on toilet rolls I have found but Wilkinsons are very good on TR's even better quality and often cheaper than that but that is a pretty good offer...

    Well as I purchased many of mine before I lost Mum, I have about 50 in a cupboard so they'll last me ages(especially being single):p

    I just looked them up as well. None anywhere near me but I noticed they are after mystery shoppers. That may suit somebody on OS.
