I try to only buy as much as we need and no more, I dislike waste.

Nothing like the one`s who `got round to it`-after years.As from last week the walk in pantry has clean shelves,organised saucepans and nothing past it`s best by date.
We will forget the grime,filth and chaos that prevailed and the `stuff` I threw away from 2004

Sometimes buy spices with good intentions but they remain in the cupboard for several years and end up being binned. Did find jar of pickled onions at the back of the cupboard the other day several years out of date. My husband loved them but he died nearly four years ago so must have been brought before then as I hate them.

Re: Store Cupboard?
Got a thing about checking dates etc. - everything in my kitchen cupboards are organised-know exactly what I have because all tins/packets are in groups...like all soup together....tuna/salmon together...sauces and spices together with all labels facing front!!!!! Know exactly what I need to buy then when I do weekly shop! Sounds sad I know, but that's just me!

Re: Store Cupboard?
Oh Merz - I envy your organisation - please come and sort me out. I am a terrible hoarder and I am still in provider mode from when the kids were living at home. I think I am worried that they will turn up and say I have nothing to give them. I have cupboards which are overspill cupboards for the stuff I already have in stock - I am such a sucker for the bogof and I always buy a large one or two if the label says it is cheaper. 
Every now and then I have a purge and go through all the cupboards - I am really surprised at how many things I find are getting out of date or already gone over (especially tins and packets). I think I am beyond redemption
