How to create a stockpile of food and household items

1. Identify the items you would like to stockpile

Examples are toothpaste, toilet paper, paper towels, deodorant, laundry detergent, facial tissue, shampoo, conditioner, razors, frozen foods, canned foods

2. How much do you need of each item

Keep at least the minimum amount to have until the next good sale comes around. The stores usually cycle every 12 weeks.

3. Buy at lowest price with coupons

make sure to combine the sale price with a coupon to get the best possible price then keep track of the price that you paid in your pricebook.

4. Organization and storage

Be creative, think outside of the box…like under the bed or the top shelf of the closet

5. Keep your stock rotated

make sure you use the FIFO (first in first out) method
