    My DW has way-more-than-necessary collections of shampoo's and lotions. If all the stores were to close, we'd be OK for a few years. She says I have a big excess of those small bubble packs & bags of various screws and bolts laying around the workshops & benches.

    My wife makes a list of the chores she has already done, and then crosses them off, just makes her feel good I guess, sometimes if she is not looking I'll add some things to her list:whistle:

    My wife doesn't hoard anything... basically if it were not for me she would not buy anything till we were out.

    I like to be well stocked.

    firewood :)
    gas cans
    batteries
    super cedars
    tools
    fasteners of all kinds (nuts, bolts, screws, nails... always buy too much for every new project) tape, glue, etc
    cleaning products
    paper products
    trash bags
    food staples
    beer
    wine

    I have most of these on auto refill with amazon. They come in bulk so I guess I hoard them too:)

    The gf always gets ahold of my lighters. I keep some stashed away in my trucks.

    As far as her hoarding, blue jeans and shoes! How many pair is normal for a woman? I am not lying when I say she has 70 pairs of each. Minimum. I quit counting at 50 and guesstimated. :hair:

    I mentioned thinning the herd and I got the "you better go to the garage and shut up" look.

    I just remembered socks and underpants, we bought extra during the fire evacuations, extra while traveling between the two houses, and extra again last summer while living in the RV. Also too many to count:emb:

    He nicknamed our previous neighbor that liked to cause trouble "meathead". His girlfriend that was several decades younger I referred to as "shack up honey", though that is borrowed from Dr Laura. :rofl: :lol:

    Oh yes, and god bless her (perished in 1997 Ft Collins floods) my friend called her ex's new wife "Big Bird" like sesame street. Hate to say it but it fit perfectly!
