Yup, I was going through my canned food & provision stuff in the cupboard & also the toiletries and found soooo many expired & going to expire stuff in 2009. That could be because ever since my "betrayor" maid ran away, I dont really spend much time cooking on weekdays like she did & she has been asking me to buy a lot of redundunt stuff without really checking if they are still available. Since she left I found myself saving so much more & less credit card bills to pay!
Aftr clearing all the expired ones, suddenly I found my cupboard so spacious & yippeee that means got chance to go for retail therapy to store new ones for the New Year. However, not planning to spend like I used to, due to economy slow down.
One of my New Year resolutions (besides to be more patient,spend more time with my kids & do more charity) is to be more thrifty to face the inflation crisis ahead.
So have you check your cupboards and see if you can beat me to the number of expired goods found? And what's your new year resolutions?

Once a month I always check the expiry dates on the food and rotate the older ones to the front and I put the new stuff to the back. My husband works at a grocery store so he got me in the habit of doing that.
i had a habit of check my cupboard and fridge for expired products. :)
ai yo yo, why did you buy them in the first place when tak boleh habis habis makan,,,, sorry lah.
