It is that time of year again where our income is a little greater so then I like to stock up on items before winter comes and hopefully these items will last me through the harsh winter months. I look for these items on sale of course and was wondering what are your must haves that you keep in your house. I guess currently on my list are AAA batteries for sure (maybe some AA too) and some 40 & 75 watt light bulbs (I have enough 60) ziploc bags or similar food storage bags, baking soda, & vinegar. So what are you staple items? I appreciate any kind of list, even a kitchen pantry staple list.
Thanks.

My frugal must haves that I must have in my home are lots and lots of noodles and sauces of all kinds. I also like to stock up on brown rice and beans along with cookies(arent frugal but hey they are darn good) I also like to stock up on cooking oil and garlic and chives. I also like to stock up on soap and shampoos along with toothpaste before the winter. I also like to keep toliet tissue in stock before the cold months set in.

Rice,(I like brown) beans,(I like pinto) onions, garlic, salt, pepper, spices, an emergency cooking & heating source, potatoes, flour, sugar, cereal, cooking oil.
If you had to, you could live on these.
