Using up what you have.
No - I never overstock, and couponing is a royal pain, not to mention that it doesn't really save you anything if you are stocking up on junk food you'll never get thru. About the only coupons I ever cut are for Tabasco and a certain brand of t.t. I'm gonna buy this stuff anyway, so that's my rule of dumb on clipping coupons.
I not only avoid overstocking, but I also get a laugh out of that ad which says Americans throw out 500 dollars worth of food a year. I sure don't. I use leftovers the next day, use green bags, keep a freezer inventory etc. I doubt if I throw 20 bucks worth away a year.
