I am afraid that I'm going to be bingewatching your videos... You shine... Your knowledge about food, history, etc...is amazing. Thank you for inspiring this Belgian 48-year old stay at home mom. Goodnight from...a grey and rainy Belgium!

I liveaboard a sailboat and have created a pantry in our walkthrough in what were drawers for tools and 2 lockers that were meant for lines (he built shelves in there too). The drawers are organized by items ie: teas in 1, crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, pasta, coconut milk/ broths/cr mush soup; extra spices; canned fish. One locker is for rice/lentils/grains/dried beans and the other locker is all spare condiments. The top was a bunk. My husband built me shelves where the bunk was and it holds my massage table, sewing machine/sewing box (a fishing tackle box!), bins of yarn and fabrics, and my larger kitchen appliances. Under the floor in the gallery is a shelf that holds two large rubbermaid bins *each is stocked with the same items so when one bin is empty the other is pulled to the front and the empty is moved back* of more pantry items. I do a large shop twice and year and rotate my food stocks. I can pack away enough pantry food for 1 year off the grid. :) This year we bought a small freezer, which allows us to shop for meat on the sales cycle. Thanks for the tip on the average cycles, I've not really paid attention to that.

With it only being my husband and I now at home and he is diabetic and limits his carbohydrate intake, I can’t justify buying much bulk foods, though it’s great for large families. 🙂👍🏻 I also found that in the past if I bought bulk treats I’d go through them quicker than if I had only a smaller amount in the home…my husband’s one treat to himself is Diet Coke (he says “I can stop anytime…but I’m not a quitter. 😆) and found out that they actually do have an expiration date! It loses its fizz and tastes a little off. I like short and to the point videos and want to thank you for this. 💞New subscriber. 👍🏻

I'm a new subscriber, and I really like your approach to shopping. We also buy in bulk, even though it's just my husband and I. We have a closet in our garage where we can store these products. We also buy our meat in bulk because of the sales rotation you were talking about. We try to buy enough to last us until the next sale!!

Great tips! Bulk buy when I see good deals. Canned cat food (along with my home pressure canned fish) has helped with my pet food needs.

Hi. I just wanted to add toilet paper is a huge bulk item for me. When we were first married and we both worked we ran out of tp. It was horrible. So now i always make sure w have a ton of tp in the house. Love your videos. I’m making an emergency bin for our house and using your clay pot heater in it. Keep up the great videos.😘

Always a breath of fresh air! Thank you!

I love stockpiling because it saves me from getting home and realizing I forgot something. Then having to rearrange plans or, worse, make a second trip! 😳😂

Im realizing that the year or so I was focusing on zero waste has saved me both tons of space and money. I buy food in bulk, and castile soap.... but we don't use a lot of these non-food items anymore.

Since I am eliminating plastic containers because of environmental reasons, I find making many of my own products takes up less space. A bottle of lemon oil, a box of washing soda, and bar Castile soap make a good dish soap without the plastic bottle.

I made the switch to buying in bulk last year. Friends all thought I was crazy. Well, guess who they're coming to now for advice on stocking up and saving money this way? They want me to teach a class on it. LOL

Great video as always, Lisa. I have a question, if I may be so bold. Most, if not all, prepping channels say to avoid storing brown rice for long term storage due to the oil content going rancid over time. The same channels will recommend storing oats - but oats have a higher fat content than brown rice. What do you think? I welcome feedback from anyone reading this.

[debbieolin]

I don't like to fool with one can here and there so if it something i use, i just buy a case of it. We now have a case of black olives! DH does not seem to mind when we have six cases of

If using mason jars with oxygen absorbers, do I use a food saver oxygen remover too or do I do it either/or?
