Stockpiling Pics Leave me Speechless

[Doglover8180]

I have been couponing a few years now and I wouldn't consider myself a rookie - however, when I look at the stockpiling pics - it makes my stash look like child's play - people have enough to open an entire store in their garage - so impressive! So impressive and exciting but kinda depressing - makes me feel like I should be out there hitting more deals! I just don't know how they do it.

Ive only been doing it like a year and never thought i would have a stockpile! Now i look under my sink and i prob have a years worth of deodorant! Im actually shipping my hubby a box of deodorant,bodywash, all those toiletrees for him and his room mate! I forgot to put the razors in the box though! Oh well i can pick up another flat rate box one of these days! His room mate is gonna love him lol.

Don't be depressed, just keep on doing the deals and your supply will increase.
I can only stand a stockpile if it is organized and out of the way. I really don't feel comfortable with clutter so my garage stockpile works for me. Of course it is still full under the sink cabinets in each bathroom and the kitchen, lol. My walk in closet is more of a perishable food storage area than a clothing closet. Otherwise, you could never tell that I was a coupon lady.

The only real stockpile I have these days is for deodorant (thank you, Secret! LOL). I've got about a year's worth in our bathroom closet, and about 4 months of shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, as well.
Every time I go shopping now, DH tells me "Don't forget, you need more deodorant! Is it on your list?"
A million out of work comedians, and he's being funny!

I do pretty good for just me and my brother each have about an easy 2 yr supply of deororant , At least a yr supply of dish soap , About 2 or more yrs of laundry soap hope it doesnt expire, canned food about a yr worth , shampoo we have had for 2 yrs and still going strong. The only thing I can never find an aqwesome deal on is dishwasher tabs . Everything else I am beyond supplied on

Ya - Deodant takes a while to make a dent in..... One tube lasts forever!

my hubby wears girls deodorant. so i got oodles of mens deodorant. his dad uses it. most the mens was free or a quarter.

The problem that persists in my stockpile is this:
If I have it, they don't want it.

I have tons of NV granola bars -- bought every variety that DH and kids wanted. Now, they are sick of them and bored with the choices. I have Quakes that they wanted -- bought a ton and they won't eat any more. Tuna coming out my wazoo and now DH is tired of tuna..... So, I need to scale back in what I put in my stockpile and donate more. The food bank did well with Cheese Nips (kids prefer CheezIts) and pasta (Quick Cook that I don't like)..... It's just frustrating when I have a ton of something and the kids want something else.
