I grew up with stockpiling. When my brother and I came home from college we always said we were going shopping. My mom would ask where and we went downstairs to the "grocery store" (aka the pantry closet).
So I stockpile when it is on sale and coupons .....
Canned Items - veggies, beans, tomatoes, fruit
Paper Goods - TP, Paper Towels, Tissues
Laundry Detergent (especially since we have a HE machine and that stuff never goes on sale)
Dishwashing detergent
Dishwasher detergent
Personal Items - Toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo etc
Condiments - BBQ Sauce, Ketchup, Mustard, Hot Sauce
We have an extra top freezer fridge and deep freeze so that allows me to stockpile cheese, milk, bread, butter, yogurt, ground beef, steak, pork, chicken etc.
I have all of this in a big closet in the basement. Some weeks I just need to go out and get fresh fruit/veggies and other weeks I spens a little bit more. However, I always need to remember that certain things we have plenty of like rice, toothpaste and soap.
