And we have moved on to the garage for storage. It is very important not to run out of Kleenex during cold and flu season, or out of toilet paper during a snow storm.
Our freezer is full, which is supposed to help it operate more efficiently.
But it is perhaps not as organized as this one. (See more and buy stuff here.)
We went grocery shopping tonight to top off our stores. Emilie was quite proud of herself. The total was over $120, which included saving $27.32 on sale items. Then we watched it go down. We saved $14.90 in coupons. Then $1.80 in doubled coupons. Then $10 in instant rebates. In the end, the total was $76.70. We also got a credit for ten cents off per gallon of Kroger gas. And then they gave us more coupons to play with next time (annoyingly, for things we had just bought.)
I sort of feel like I won a Cracker Jack prize. We bought so many things for our $76.70 that our receipt was almost 1.5 dachshunds long!
Which is sort of like the unit of measurement known as a Smoot. But smaller and cuter. And furrier. Bearing in mind, of course, that the length of a dachshund varies with temperature.

Our cabinets are full of food. I think I may be able to skip shopping for anything beyond bare basics for a few weeks now. It is amazing ho wmuch three adults will eat.
