A coupon addicts question.. What should I stock up on?
Lol.. I am a junkie! I'm already thinking ahead here....
So tomorrow is the last day of super double coupons, and there will probably be one or two more before surgery if all goes well with insurance. I get a lot of coupons for vitamins, and meal replacement drinks.
What would you suggest I start stocking up?

i am also a couponer. LOVE IT! As far as stockpiling I would say vitamins (chewable) , refried beans, soup and broths, cheeses like string cheese or baby Bel ( I know a coup in was out recently I used last week), there are often pure protein coups in the smart source or Atkins etc. Don't stock up too much though... cause your tastes will change.

Ok, any specific vitamins beyond a muti-vitamin that I should grab? I'm getting those pretty cheap during super doubles right now. I'm just afraid of any actual pills. Sounds like people have a hard time swallowing them???
I'll stay away from anything that goes into the fridge until I come close to that time. But I will clear out all my good soup/broth coupons tomorrow.

GNC has a buy one half off on the second one, on their Isopure, liquid protein, 40 gr protein, that would be handy for the first two weeks to get your protein up and liquids at the same time... Its pretty good in Crystal Light flavored water, sip, sip sip...

You might not want to stock up on anything. The things you like now, you may not tolerate after surgery. There are several things I liked pre op that just don't sit well with me now. Vitamins are one of them. Same things with protein shakes, you want to check the carbs and protein on shakes.
My husband and I had it at the same time and we just got 1 of things we thought we'd like. Somethings he tolerates just fine and I can not.
Just a word of advice :)

The gummy childrens vitamins are what I was taking. Also my labs showed that I was deficient in some of the B vitamins so I stocked up on those *they are a tiny little pill and I had no problem after 2 weeks* If your labs showed anything specific you go with that.
