Having bought butter for the 2nd time this week.
It got me thinking.
What are your top 5 things you use the most.
Mine in order.
1. Milk, in ridiculous amounts. 6 pints lasts 1 day.
2. Butter, I don't know what they do with it all
3. Toliet roll. Mind you with 6 botties not surprising.
4 . cereal eaten in huge quantities by teenagers
5. Sugar, goes too quick they must be drinking it!

Others that didn't make the list.
Washing up liquid, soap powder, fabric softener

Anybody else?

    Off the top of my head , so probably not completely accurate; these are just the things I always seem to be replacing.

    1. Eggs - luckily, home-produced - 4 or 5 most days
    2. Loo roll - 6+ here too
    3. Onions
    4. Carrots
    5. Tinned tomatoes
    6. Butter - probably tied equally with cat food!

    Don't know why I needed 6 (ok, 7) just did!
