+1 after our Dove soap fiasco we generally don't buy more than 4 of anything when we are brand flexible (I could take or leave Dove bodywash. I could use Ivory/Bath and Bodyworks/ organic stuff too). But there's just some things where I do not budge to a different brand name (I only use Colgate Total, or Degree deodorant, for example). So I bought nearly 10 toothpastes last year when I got them for free with coupons. Down to the last two now. Important to judge how long it takes you to use up a product.

Apply every possible promo code to your cart, at every store that you visit (and get points for cash back on top of that?). It's sweet and easy with HONEY.

I guess all of this is something you learn the hard way. Unless we are talking razors or TP etc, i typically don't have more than four of anything on hand. I always find similar products for cheap when i am close to running out of whatever it is. Unless I made money on something, but even at that point I start giving it to family.
Even if you only spent 50 cents on something that was $5, if you did that x10, and all 10 products spoiled just sitting around then you wasted $5.

its a question of space too and having too much clutter around which drives me crazy. re downy I always water down fabric softener especially with the condensed version as I find it doesn't filter through the load properly otherwise. I've noticed the fluffy bits on Royale tp too and it was new pkg. so don't think it is expiry issue.

Gillette probably has nothing to do with Stockpiling. I don't buy Gillette shaving cream anymore because that happened to us few times even when we just bought it. Couple of years ago, Gillette was at Costo. Don't know if the guy was a rep or what but he had a little booth in Costco and was giving small bottles of Gillette as sample and was trying to sell the pack of 4 regular size and I complained that I won't buy Gillette because it rarely comes out of the can properly. You keep pressing and very little gets out if any and he said yes they have had problems with that and lot of people complain about it but now they have fixed it and should be ok and he gave us couple of samples. Well, it was no better when we tried it at home, same problem still existed on one of the cans but the other one was fine. So no more Gillette for us any more.

I'm tempted to buy a bottle of Palmolive at Shoppers or Fortino's to see how runny their contents are. Or Dollarama.

Don't do Dollarama dish soap. At work for a while we had a bottle of dish soap from Honest Ed's (similar to Dollarama).
It was truly awful. Smelled funny and had to use half a bottle to really clean anything. Wash afraid of eating on the dishes afterward lol. I don't stray from Palmolive, Dawn or SunlightApply every possible promo code to your cart, at every store that you visit (and get points for cash back on top of that?).

I have found that downy gets thick if its been exposed to the cold, I donated most of my stockpile last year and only buy what I need as I go now
We all need a little sunshine every now and then
