First ever shop

Ok maybe not my first ever shop but my first shop in my new house. I'm wanting to start as I mean to go on, at the minute I have the odd cleaning product which I brought with me when I was cleaning the new house. So basically what should I buy as I'd like to start as I mean to go on.
I have teabags, coffee, sugar, soup, flavoured rice and chocolate and that is it basically, oohhh and I got a few mini box of Shreddies in the post the other day. I have a nice big freezer so I'm more than happy to cook to freeze.
Thoughts and ideas welcome. I saw a post a while back, can't find it now, about a box for a student who was moving out so I guess it's that kind of thing I'm after.
Thanks :beer:

Years ago, when I did my "first" shop I felt really chuffed with myself...thought I had everything. Until I came to do tea and found I'd forgotten to buy a can opener!!!!! :rotfl:New Mantra: I must not visit MSE until after I've completed all my chores!!!!!0

We have a cheese grater from our first shop, which must be about 14 years ago now. I wonder if we remembered the cheese.0
