Do You Stock Up On Things, When You See a Deal?  

Absolutely, as long as we know we can use it later on or that it has a long shelf life. A lot of times, the grocery stores around us do 10 for $10, which would work out to $1 per item. This usually gets us to purchase quite a few of these items, just to keep storage in our home. Same goes for other products; shoot, we'll even go to bulk warehouses like Costco or Sam's Club just to get those wholesale sizes because we know it's cheaper and helps us out with our food stocking later on. We definitely save money in this method, it gets us a little more of the product we want/need so that we don't have to replenish too often, and it drives the cost per unit lower.

Yes we stock up on things we use a lot of it is cheaper in the long run, alot of time my kids open our closets and say why you got all that stuff/ but guess where they come running when they need something in a hurry lol. we have a linen closet full of toiletrees that we got at dollar/sams/walmart type stores. and we expecially love it in the winter when the weather is bad we dont have to out in the freezing cold to go to the store.

If it's something that won't spoil like shampoo, canned food or school supplies then I stock up when ever it is on sale or they have those lovely clearance carts. At one point I had my pantry so full that I had bags of stuff on the floor because the shelves were all full. A local grocery store was going out of business and slashed the prices on everything to get rid of the stock. If I had another freezer, chances are I'd still be having frozen pizza every other day lol.

I do this, too. It does save alot in the long run, and especially if I have coupons for the same items. I also have a closet that I keep extra toiletries on hand when they go on sale. We have the grocery store 10 for $10 dollar sales every couple of months and I hit those,too. Usually pizzas, and sausages and things that I am sure that we will use and they will stay good until I use them. I stock up on canned goods and things like that at a local Aldis' store because you can get so many things cheaper there. It does help out in the winter, too, in bad weather, because I almost always have extras on hand.

It depends on whether I have room for whatever the item is and how quickly I use it. Most times though, I'll pick up a couple extra if it's a really good deal.

I'm lucky to have enough room in my house that I am able to stockpile whenever there is a sale. There is always something on sale at Costco so if it is something i use, i'll buy 2 or 3 (or more depending on what it is) and save it for when I do need it. I usually stockpile detergents and laundry things, paper towels, and other non-perishable items. It is all stuff I use so why not?? I probably saved close to 50$ by doing this...

Whenever there's an incredibly good bargain on daily/routinely used items, I stock up so that it saves us money in the long run. Plus, I'm a member of Sam's Club, so I always buy all of my items in bulk.

However, one thing to remember about sales, is not to be enticed into buying things you don't need, as in reality, these "sales" end up costing you more money.

shoot my mom does! and i kn ow i need too! its like she always has things when she needs it. i think its a good idea.

When I see a 2 for 1 sale I stock up. Yesterday I got chocolate syrup and ketchup for 2 for 1. I got mayo that way also and bought 6 of them! I get hot dogs that way too sometimes, if they are the brand I like. I like the low fat ones. I also like to go to Quality Foods market on certain days because their meats are marked down to get rid of them.

yes, i definitely do stock up when there are things that i really need and going for sale... it has to be a non-perishable things though like soap, shampoo, softener, laundry powder, tissue paper, etc... i don't really dare to stock up on food as i'm afraid they will turn bad and i will waste money because i have to throw them away... and yes, i save a lot by doing this...
