How to Stock Your Pantry During COVID-19

The pandemic has shown that it is best to be prepared for the worst. No one actually knows when it is going to surge or when it is going to end. It is essential to vaccinate and stock up on your pantry supplies as a protective measure during this hard time.  

 

Stocking up on essential pantry items is an important thing to discuss because in these trying times, we need to purchase products mindfully. Every family needs pantry supplies and while stocking up, sometimes people might hoard these items unnecessarily and lot of products go waste.  

 

Here are 5 tips for stocking your pantry right during Covid.  

 

  • Make a Shopping list  

The first task is to check all the things you have at home/office and make a shopping list. For your assistance, we have compiled a list of pantry supplies that you can refer to. Keeping a list of items to be bought makes your life so much easier and keeps us within budget! You can increase the quantity of supplies according to the needs of your family and how often you want to buy.  

 

  • Purchase products that you normally use 

During these Covid times, it is best to buy pantry supplies that you generally use on a daily basis. No need to buy anything fancy or try out something new. Purchase the brands that are readily available. Don't stock up just for the sake of it. For instance, if you don’t drink cola, there is no need to stock 10 bottles of it. Keep staple food items that you would normally eat.  

 

  • Minimize junk food 

Now I know kids love junk food and sometimes it’s fine. However, it is advised not to consume too much “junk food” as it can harm your health. In these Covid times, with every one spending more time indoors, our health has already deteriorated. These days there are healthier versions of everything, so it is advisable to buy those.  

 

Now while stocking up, it is imperative to keep a watch on the budget. It would be great if you buy your supplies from pantry item wholesalers. This is because you will get much cheaper rates if you buy in bulk.  

  

  • Look for coupon codes or discounts online  

These days a lot of online shopping websites give discounts. Websites such as Noon, Amazon, etc. can be checked regularly to get hold of discount codes. There are also referrals and coupon codes that can be utilized to avail discounts.
