Rotating Stockpiled Goods |
|
|
When stockpiling groceries and other items, to save from making unnecessary trips out shopping, whether it's by using coupons, sales, or just your savvy shopping sense and skills. Be sure to rotate the items in your stockpile, like the grocers do, by putting the oldest items in front to use first. Check product expiration dates. The longer you have a food item, it'll eventually lose it's original taste. Aerosol cans tend to lose their spraying ability (ex: deodorant, shaving cream, etc.)

RE: Rotating Stockpiled Goods
When rotating stockpiled goods, I always put the newer items at the back of the shelves and the older items at the front. In addition, I put the newer items upside down until I have used the old ones first; then I turn the new ones right-side-up.

RE: Rotating Stockpiled Goods
The easiest way to do this is by quickly taking a marker and dating the tops of cans, or packages with the day you bought them. I do this with frozen foods too. When buying bulk hamburger, I seperate it into smaller packages, label and date them. Dating encourages rotating.
