Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday. I’ll be posting 24-hour giveaways at 8 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET to give you plenty of chances to win!
One of the most common questions I get about stockpiling is, “How do you manage your stockpile?” Frankly, this is something I still struggle with. My kitchen pantry is relatively small — certainly not large enough to house a stockpile that will sustain a family of seven. We have additional shelving, as well as an extra refrigerator and deep freezer in the garage, but I’ll admit that it’s difficult at best to keep tabs on everything.
So when Tiffany from Shelf Reliance asked if I’d be interested in trying one of their Cansolidator Pantry shelf units I jumped at the chance. Not only does it save space, but it also automatically rotates your stockpile, ensuring that products are used in the order of expiration. Furthermore, it alleviates the sometimes dangerous practice of stacking cans on top of each other. Have I ever told you about the time my husband dropped a can of peas on my bare pinky toe? Well, let’s just say it was not a pretty sight…
Now I just need to pick up a few more Cansolidator units to finish organizing. Luckily Tiffany has a great deal for us:

The hardest part about keeping my cabinets organized is the fact that my kitchen is mini sized! We used to have things under control, but in October we had our first child. Now with baby food jars, rice cereal boxes, bottles, bowls, spoons, and sippy cups, the cabinets are over flowing and we don’t have room for canned goods like we used too! HELP! Good thing my son is amazing!!!
Amy
I have a nice large pantry but the hardest part is 1) knowing what’s in the back of the shelves (sometimes it expires before I remember to use it!) and 2) safely stacking the cans – some are made to stack nicely and others just aren’t.

Sarah
Our pantry (aka cabinet) is high and I’m not that tall so it’s hard to see everything to keep organized.
Traci K
The hardest part is when my two little boys sneak in the pantry and pull out everything I just organized. They are always looking around for “snacks” and end of pulling out the sugar and flour instead!

I have the hardest time trying to use the older food first. I always put my new stuff in the front of my pantry and the old stuff gets pushed to the back!

The hardest part for me about keeping my pantry clean and organized and is keeping up to date on what I have and what I need. I find myself going between my pantry and my stockpile area looking around. I need some kind of list system or something!
Ashlee
We have a great deep pantry, but it is so hard to reach things and remember what is even in the back. THis would help a lot.
Cami
I have a deep cabinet which makes it hard to remember what’s back there!
Cami
I get your emails.
Ashley S
The hardest part is keep everything stacked nicely so that it is easier to clean around & keep from tipping over.
Fran
I am extremely organized and stack my can goods by type and they all must be facing forward!!! This would be a great product for me.
Dan
Hardest part of keeping it clean is finding the time to do it… that’s the last thing I want to do on my list of “things to do”.

It is SO hard to use the FIFO principle. Sometimes I am just to lazy to do first-in-first-out, and then I use new things first!
Jennifer D
The hardest thing about my pantry, is that it’s small and I don’t have much room!

Sometimes my hardest part is keeping everything organized and remembering what I have and where it is. I keep some of my things in the pantry but the overflow goes on the shelves in the laundry room and a lot times I forget about the stuff in the laundry room. It is a nice surprise when I find things I have forgotten about though!
Karen
We have lots of space in our pantry and we try to keep soups together, desserts together, etc. We also store garbage bags, batteries, plastic bags, vitamins…so it just looks like a hodge podge of stuff and we can never find what we need! Or things are behind other things so we can’t see what we need.

No matter what the packaging is, it’s hard to remember what all I have in the pantry. When something gets shoved to the back, it might accidentally stay there for quite some time!
Jennifer Fink
I hate trying to rotate, And my husband can NEVER find anything – I am the one who always has to get stuff!
Jamie Hardegree
The hardest part of keeping my pantry organized is the time to do it.

My hardest part about keeping my pantry organized is my baking section. I have several bags of flour, sugar, decorations etc. and there is no good way to organize it that I have found. A close second would be where I store all my 4 month’s old supplies like cereal, baby food etc. I am still looking for solutions for both areas!

The hardest part about keeping my pantry clean is the fact that I find so many great deals, I have too much stuff LOL This organizer would be perfect!
