Buying another box, bag, etc. of soap, toilet paper, tooth paste and whatever long lasting product before it runs out. It doesn't expire (fast), therefore I always have a second, full bag as a buffer, and as soon as I have to open the second one, I put it on the shopping list so there is always a buffer bag and I don't get annoyed if I still forget to buy one or it's out of stock.
It's been years since I had to use some weird substitute for toilet paper.
Can't get my partner to do this. They are too worried about "saving money/we don't need it (now)". For heavens sake, I'm not saying buy a spare house; just pick up an extra tube of toothpaste!
It's only going to go up in price so you're kind of saving money by buying more unperishables.
