    What a privilege it is to live in walking distance to a supermarket - this problem doesn’t even exist for me, being out of something just means I walk 4 minutes and buy it.

      I grew up across the street from a large grocery store, and around the corner from a convenience store, but still my mom would stockpile many months worth of stuff like flour, sugar, oats, spices, tea…

        I mean, if you manage to get good discounts and have spare room, I guess go ahead.

        I’d rather not pay for mass amounts of storage for what is usually a comparatively small saving on bulk purchases

        According to Google maps, a one way walking trip to the nearest grocery store would take 4 hours and 36 minutes for me.

          If times were better I’d say you live in a pretty decent place for you to open a small grocery store. But I guess you could just live in the middle of no where
