Buying another box, bag, etc. of soap, toilet paper, tooth paste and whatever long lasting product before it runs out. It doesn’t expire (fast), therefore I always have a second, full bag as a buffer, and as soon I have to open the second one, I put it on the shopping list so there is always a buffer bag and I don’t get annoyed if I still forget to buy one or it’s out of stock.
It’s been years since I had to use some weird substitute for toilet paper.
Can’t get my partner to do this. They are too worried about “saving money/we don’t need it (now)”. For heavens sake, I’m not saying buy a spare house; just pick up an extra tube of toothpaste!
You can tell them you’re not wasting any of it because eventually it will be used, none of it will get spoiled and people tend to actually need that bog roll within a week or two. Also, it’s a ONE time “double” buy, because from then on you buy everything once just the same; you just make sure you don’t end up spending even MORE when you run out of the 24 roll TP bag and have to quickly buy a less eco 6-pack.

It’s the old prepper adage: two is one, one is none.
But three is two, and two is one, with one is none, then I need to buy four more. But wait there’s more; because five is four!
Interesting, I know this one with beer.

Spare tube of toothpaste? In this economy?
Right? Look at Mr. Moneybags over here that can afford toothpaste. I use hand soap as toothpaste and I’m glad to have it.
I’ve been trying to remember all the little folks since I’ve become so fabulously wealthy, but it just doesn’t seem worth it anymore. /s
You might actually save money buying in bulk plus you won’t need to make 2x the number of trips to the store which burns gas and your time.
I would leave her
KANBAN your life. Love it
