| Stockpiling Tips
Hey all just some stockpiling tips hoping everyone can use.
I started stockpiling a couple years ago. I have about a years worth of HBA stuff and about 6 months of side dishes, condiments.
Tips.
-Of course stockpile according to sales/coupons.
-Join coupon trains or trade qs, buy multiple papers to gain more coupons to get more stuff for your stockpiles (or dig through the recycle bin to get some that was thrown out).
-Store dry beans, rice, flour, etc in air tight plastic containers to keep out bugs.
-If you run out of cupboard/closet space store your stuff in rubbermaid totes and label them. you can even keep them in a basement/garage this way without worrying about critters getting in.
-You can store flour, cake mixes, bread, buns, muffin mixes, in the freezer. My grandmother did this by saving bread bags and putting the boxes of cake mix and flour bags in these and tying them shut and keeping them in the freezer.
- Dont forget to check your dates and rotate your items.
