How to use your pantry stockpile

If you follow the sales, coupons, rebates and groceries by the box programs, you will eventually get to the point where you have quite a bit of groceries saved up in storage in your pantry shelves or your freezer.

The advantage of that situation is, when cash flow is tight because other bills are getting in the way, your grocery purchases are minimal because you already have most of what you need to make breakfast / lunch / dinner / potluck contribution. This pantry stockpile also can be a sanity saver during layoff times.

But how do you use this resource to your advantage?

Homemaker Barbi has this post How to use up food in a pantry stockpile.

You start by taking an inventory:

Foods get pushed to the back, hide behind bigger packages, and attempt to disguise themselves in the shadows to avoid being consumed. Don’t let the food pull one over on you! Pull out all items from cabinets, shelves, lazy Susans, and put them out on a table or countertop.
