Poll question: Are you a stockpiler or a let it run out kinda person?
I hate running out of things you generally use (toilet paper, laundry detergent, toothpaste, etc.). Thus, I generally keep an eye and when things run near low, pick one up the next time I'm out. My bf on the other hand has been know to not do laundry for a 2 weeks due to a lack of detergent. On the other extreme, my mother maintains a inventory of a small corner market in her basement. (It's nice to visit and stock up ;-) )

So which are you?

1. I like to have extras on hand
If there's a two for one sale of anything, I'll get that. I'll use it eventually.

2. Yes, I am.
I'm both a stockpiler and a buy it when I need it person. It really depends on what sort of item we're talking about.

5. Yes, I have to be a stockpiler.
I need to maintain a level of utmost organization and budgeting to make this place run. Unfortunately for things like produce or seafood, you can't really stockpile, so I'm always making frequent trips to the store anyway.
