Ziplock freezer bags -- that way, you can bulk cook things like spaghetti sauce and freeze them.

You reminded me to add coconut milk as I soooo want coconut rice again!! *Drool*
I'd not go crazy the first time, just buy what you want to use and eat that week and the staples, and you can add more, like spices, as you find you need them.
cereal. oatmeal, frozen dinners (good for lunch and such) and canned tuna if your going to start eating fish as well as canned soups.
How did I forget about canned Tuna lol I love to eat it right out of the can lolOriginally Posted by angelbow20
If you do any baking, you may want to consider a small bag of flour and sugar, and maybe some brown sugar.
Sounds like a great list!
When I first was on my own after college (MANY moons ago!), my Dad gave me $100.00 AFTER we had been to the store for all of the staples, and he told me to keep it for an emergency! I had that money for almost a year, and it was nice to know that it was there if I needed it. You may want to consider trying to save some of the money your Dad is giving you for just the same thing. Just a thought.

He gave me 500.00 & said to spend 300.00 on food & a costco membership. I plan to put 50.00 away. I also get really big bonuses 4 times a year, so in a yrs time I should have over 2k put away... I have plans for it already, as some is going to my car & the rest is going to my OSAP loan<-- thats dads rule..Originally Posted by Donnaj4962
My dad wants me to fill my cupboards so things will be easier on me for the first few months, as this is my only chance to stock up while hes around.. after that I'm on my own & I only have 100.00/month to live off of. So stalking up on canned goods that I use on a reg bases & all the basics, will mean more edible foods like Meats & Dairy down the road.Originally Posted by Karen
Come sept. I'm 100% on my own.. Well dad is still paying my bankruptcy, so I can afford my rent on my own...
