It does sound like fun though. Wish I had the will power!See if you can go from now until the end of the month, using up the stuff that's been hanging around the pantry, freezer, and fridge the longest....
Trying not to buy anything "NEW" except necessities ONLY (milk, eggs & bread)..... Saw this on a Food forum and thought it sounded fun......
What's lurking in your pantry??

it's called good deals... and I can't possibly go a whole month without shopping It does sound like fun though. Wish I had the will power!
Laurie 2|1|Easy peasy Lauri! Just leave the new stuff in bags on the basement floor and only eat from the pantry, rofl. Then in a month put all the fresh new shopping on the shelves!|Barb09|Barb0969@AOL.com|21:15:55|10/17/2012|
I looked and looked and found no coupons for troll food......SO, I don't feed the trolls!! 4|2|I wish I had a basement! My house is a whopping 1200 sq feet|jdlaurie|savethosepennies@aol.com|22:58:14|10/17/2012|
I can't imagine what I would do with another 1200 sq feet. Imagine the stockpiles I could have then! I'm restricted to two 2 industrial size shelving units in the laundry room and a shelf above the small freezer (all of which are fully packed with stuff!). If I had to put bags of stuff somewhere else, I'd be walking over it every day to get from room to room! LOL 3|1|No way if you have a Kroger nearby|20yrrefunder|tradernikki@yahoo.com|22:56:32|10/17/2012|

6|1|I do this all the time...|Quietwaters|Quietwaters39@hotmail.com|07:45:46|10/18/2012|
to make sure stuff gets rotated and used up, you know that stuff you stick way in the freezer and forget you have. It is kind of like a treasure hunt month.
************

and freezer is super packed right now i;ll take the challenge vickie
8|1|We have a Krogers..... But (m)|carmenanderson|cloudcars@verizon.net|10:56:47|10/18/2012|
our quit doubling etc after the "coupon show" came out. At that same time, couponing became very popular in my area ,and the shelves were clear everytime I went to make a coupon run....
With WM, CVS and Wags being 25-35 miles one way, all the competition in those towns could clear the shelf multiple times before I made my once a week run. I haven't couponed since the show ruined it in my area, probably going on 2 years now. We have used stockpiles of HBA & cleaning products since then and my food stockpile is just about gone....We have what the "normal" family has on the shelf, maybe a tad more...but no massive stockpiles anymore..... We buy in bulk @ Sam's alot of the time, 25# bags of sugar and flour..I still watch the sales, but not with coupons in mind anymore...just being really careful, especially when meats go on sale --trying to stock the freezer then. Be glad the "new couponers" haven't ruined it in your area. :)
