Yet another thing I've noticed over the past few years is 'getting in supplies of stuff'. I always like to have 'one in use and a second one for when the first one runs out'. This means that there's always toothpaste in the bathroom cabinet and a spare tube in the storage cupboard. I seem to stockpile toilet rolls. And if I see a nice cardigan at a reasonable price, I'll get a second one in another colour, in case they stop making them. I'm obviously preparing for a siege!
