The Stockpile (as explained by Tana)

So Scott & Dave made a bit of fun of me on Saturday and joked that I probably have 40 pounds of mayo just because I have a coupon....HaHa....I do have some stockpiles, but I acquired them with expiration dates and rate of use in mind. So many of the things Tana describes in her post, I have as well, but I'm kind of shocked at how fast you really do go through some of these things and why it's so cool I bought most of them for great deals or FREE!

She describes the whole thing so well....and even if you are somewhere that doesn't have doubles or triples, unless you shop at Aldis (the world's cheapest grocery store) for every single solitary thing you buy, you can still take advantage of coupons. You can get away with not paying full price even at "big blue" (my company's competition) or a grocery store. Though, I hope you're getting them from a grocery store or SuperTarget....Shopping at Big Blue frightens me....it's usually a scary experience...I only go there once a year.

Check out her short explanation.
(Tana, I'm going to mooch a lot from you when you do this! :)
