Powerade lots and lots of Powerade

[farmergirl]

I got over 100 powerade last week (love weis!!) and most is still in the truck cuz I can't find a place to put it All the shelves are full of food and my place is teeny tiny (under 700sqf). Where are some super creative places that I can stash these (under the bed is totes of clothes my prego butt won't be fitting into for a long time)???? Oh, no closets in this place either They are loose/not in packages/cases.

Please help!!

First I would go with a sharpie and right the exp date of all of them..cause these don't last forever. Make sure your storing the ones with the longest exp dates..and having easy access to the ones with the closest exp date.

I have room for them, Bring them over. What was the deal that I missed.

[farmergirl]

Weis- 10/10 sale plus b10g5f AND I had a ton of the .75/2 coupons. The Delmonte fruit/veg got the two empty cupboards and a shelf and now I have nowhere to put the powerade. I ended up with 120 powerade (less now that DH is taking 2 to work every day).

Have a garage sale ASAP

[farmergirl]

Ummmm- I don't want to sell them. They will be used up in 2-3 months and save us a ton of money over DH buying them at the gas stations. He works insane hours (80+ a wk) so takes 2 a day to work with him.

I need to figure out something fairly permanent since powerade coupons come out fairly regularly and Weis has this sale fairly regularly. By fairly regularly I mean that when this stockpile is about gone I should be getting alot more .

My biggest problem is that we live in a 2 bedroom but 1 room was always the pantry and now that we are pregnant (a miracle!) the pantry has to be squeezed into the kitchen. Just trying to make everything organized and "pretty" is really hard when there's so much going in such a small space.

Do you have a closet that you can store them all in? Even though it's only temporary??

[couponlover]

Congratulations on your pregnancy!! Enjoy your powerade :-)

[farmergirl]

Nope, no closets. Well, the bathroom has one but I'm not comfortable storing food by a toilet.

Thanks for the congrats!! We are really excited and she is TOTALLY worth losing my pantry for, just a bit hectic trying to find space for everything when I used to have a whole bedroom for a pantry.

Well this is my suggestion this is what I do with my power aids I store them under our queen size bed I get huge hauls like you quite regularly I would think finding a place to stack your totes would be easier to find than to store these drinks. I would take the toes out from under the bed and use it to store your drinks. I know a lott of shuffling but at least you won't have to worry about buying shelving, The totes are a temporary thing and if you do it now then it will be easier before you get a belly trust me.. Also those drinks can be heavy I would also request help from the Dh carrying them all. I have a 12 year old who helps consume ours and I tell him mom will hunt down the coupons chase the deals and he can carry from the car to the house :) Good luck
