| Oh yeah, I'm right there with you....I believe I just may be a food hoarder, LOL Seriously, it's just me, DH and Zhoie, my freezer is packed, my pantry is full of cans. But I still feel when I go to the grocery store, I'd better stock up I'm thinking I have a problem with food hoarding and clothes/toy shopping for Zhoie. To sad....but oh so true.

| I do too, but it's because my grandmother buys me my non-perishable food when I go home, she is a bit of a hoarder, we call her basement the "store" and I go "shopping" every time I go home.. Ok I'm bad, but I love my grandmother if it wasn't for her I definitely wouldn't be able to make it through school (I'm paying for it myself). I should try to have a no-buy May....

| We need to switch places. There are at least 3 of us here at home, but the fridge is emptier than my fridge when I was in college.

| I always over buy food. My first downfall is that I was a prep cook in a hospital so I always feel like I have to have a back up of everything. But there are two of us here, not like 300, lol. But I do do a lot of batch cooking, etc. I get so annoyed at my DD and myself when our supply's not fully loaded & we whine "oh, there's nothing to eat"! Puh-lease!

| I have the opposite problem, I usually don't have enough food! I HATE shopping- I can never think of what I want when I go. So I end up shopping every day for what I need that day- lol. Right now, my fridge and freezer is filled because my parents are having their kitchen remodeled and they dumped all their food here since they don't have a fridge/ freezer hooked up.

| I should have a "No Buy May" - for some reason, my freezer and my pantry are full of food and I still feel the need to go grocery shopping every week! Of course, right now I can't think of anything here I want to eat for dinner because I am lazy and don't want to cook. Apparently I need to start investing in convenience foods.

Shall we see how long we can go without buying more than produce, bread and milk?? I could really use the boost in the wallet this would give me as well We could even share/suggest recipes for the food we already have on hand!! I could use this as a personal challenge to see how long I can make it

| We are usually packed out too. Two of us and the fridge is almost always full, plus the freezer, plus the deep freeze, plus the pantry, plus what sits out... But a lot of it is just ingredients or whatever to make things. It's not quick-grab meals, so no good to me. lol
