Stockpile

Seems that now as soon as people find out you are a couponer, they want to see the stockpile.

I'm very proud of mine and although it's not the largest around, it still takes up a lot of room.

My husband, I and our two young boys live in a small home and don't have a lot of space to spare.

We do have a few plans to increase the room for the stockpile one day, hopefully soon!

Because of the lack of space, my stockpile is not all in one location.

This first photo is our stand up freezer. I LOVE this thing!!

We couldn't have a lot of the food items in our stockpile, without this!

I would love the room to add another one day!

We do not use our dryer (for money saving reasons, that I will address in another post).

So I store drinks infront of it.

Next photo is the top of my pantry. It is usually packed from floor to ceiling!

Bottom half of pantry.

This is the shower in our master bathroom. (We have a separate shower & tub. )

The shower hasn't worked in a few years, so this have become an important area for my stockpile.

This is my youngest son's closet. He is always stocked on diapers.

Since we are limited on space, his closet is also storing clothing he has outgrown and that he hasn't grown into yet. I do remove the clothes that he has outgrown when there is enough to fill a storage box. I shop a lot of thrift stores and will buy clothes that both boys haven't grown into yet if they are a good buy. (I plan to go into that in more detail in a later post.)

I forgot to include a photo of where I store all my personal items.

These photos were taken almost two weeks ago and of course my stockpile has grown since then.

Currently my stockpile includes.....

*multiple packages of diapers, pullups & swim diapers totaling over 250  individual diapers

*multiple packages of baby wipes totaling over 800 individual wipes

* 15 bottles of laundry detergent

*14 bottles of dish detergent

* 21 bottles of various flavors of juice

* 30 boxes of tea bags

* 31 boxes of cereal

*12 bottles of various cleaning products

* 27 deodorants (men & women)

* 9 bottles of body wash

* 10 razors

* 14 jars of various spagetti sauces

* 21 boxes of various types of noodles (all were totally free!!)

* over 100 individual canned & bottled drinks (various brands)

* 10 boxed puppy flea collars

*6 cans of goldfish food

* 15 bottles of pain reliever

*10 packages of hot dog franks

*15 lbs of shredded or block cheese

Of course my stockpile is not extreme, but I'm proud of it!

My stockpile also includes a lot of other items.
