What Does it Mean to Stock Up?
To stock up (on something) is to buy a large amount of that thing so that you will have enough to use in the future. There are a lot of different reasons that people stock up.
Why Should You Stock Up On Groceries?
The #1 reason you should be stocking up on groceries is that it can save you tons of money. It helps you save money because if done right, you’re buying foods when they are at their lowest price and keeping them in your pantry. You then need to be eating those foods on a regular basis instead of buying ingredients when they are at sky-high prices.
What foods should I stock up?
You should be stocking up on any of the food items that you eat on a regular basis. It will be important for every person to determine what foods they eat the most and start tracking what they pay and what the sale prices are in their area. I created my post, How to Make a Grocery Price Book specifically for this tracking practice.
Top 10 Foods for Stocking Up
Again, this depends greatly on what foods you eat, but I find that these are the foods that I can save the most on. They are also eaten frequently by most families and can be stored safely.
How Do You Stock a Pantry on a Budget?
If you’re planning to stock up on food to fill your pantry, it’s possible to completely blow your grocery budget. It’s important to be smart about the way you shop and how much you’re spending.
