Being a food lover I am always trying new items but, in most cases, I don't repeat them as they aren't better or different than what I already have or eat.
When I find an item I like I usually stock up on it so I won't/don't run out. Every Thursday I go shopping and a main place for canned and frozen foods is the Dollar Tree where I get about a half a dozen items I like and consume between Friday and Wednesday from canned mushrooms to frozen veggies.
I got home last week to find an email from Dollar Tree saying something about a mistake and therefore for only two days, all shipping would be a dollar. It had nothing to do with Black Friday and it was a one time deal. I ordered a case--12 jars--of mushrooms and a case--12 jars--of picante sauce and it all came to $25.
I was going to get some more items but I just didn't have the money to put out without charging and I've been a 'good' boy about that for 10 years now so for 2 weeks I know I have mushrooms and piccante sauce!
Do you stock any food?

Yes, I do..it’s convenient to always have foods at home. I do my shopping once a week every Friday.

With the way prices are going up constantly that's a good idea!

I stock up food when I can from online. JET has very good offers and also 12 jars of something and so on. I prefer to get it delivered to my door. I have no car and on foot, the Dollar Tree here is very far.

Same here--that is why I got it delivered--get on their mailing list as they have shipping specils every now and then.
