I've always bought things on sale and used coupons. I say, if it don't drink or eat, there's not a problem. I'm pretty sure I've saved money over the years. My family teases me that I'm "expecting a flood" because of the toilet paper in the bathroom closet. Well, they've never had to do without it. :)Oklahoma Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10053304659210754009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-63204354427606439612010-06-19T07:17:46.732-05:002010-06-19T07:17:46.732-05:00Hi Joycee, You don't sound like a Hoarder to m...Hi Joycee, You don't sound like a Hoarder to me. I used to buy extra everything when I lived in Maine because I was over an hour from a good grocery store.<br />I did get carried away though. I threw out a lot of expired items over the 11 years I lived there. I am trying not to repeat that now that I am in Texas and close to HEB. I know I followed in my grandmothers footsteps. Gran would buy 5 of everything, including her shoes. I kinda understood that though, she wore a size 5 and that size was hard to come by.<br />I actually knew someone in California that was a bonafide Hoarder. "I diagnosed him as being really sick in the head." Even my husband was horrified to see how our poor friend lived. The lady that was dating him finally gave up trying to help him and moved on. Sad, really!Marjoriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15015642512286126041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-30189332370800949392010-06-19T07:06:39.062-05:002010-06-19T07:06:39.062-05:00I'm just the opposite when it comes to buying ...I'm just the opposite when it comes to buying food and have had to train myself to buy multiples when things are on sale. Publix does lots of buy 1 get 1, so I will stock up on things we use when I find them like that.KBeauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02749986838867446338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466688981552322075.post-79480936323223349742010-06-19T07:06:35.350-05:002010-06-19T07:06:35.350-05:00NO WAY Joycee!

My husband's closet is like that...it stores extra toilet paper, paper towels, pop, chips, and what ever else I can't fit in cupboards or cabinets. I have about 10 or more packages of Jello in my cabinet...I'm not a hoarder...just prepared ;) Have a wonderful weekend!
