Any ideas/suggestions?

I’ve looked at a few, but can’t work our which, if any, will work effectively with UK barcodes.

TIA

There was some talk about aps around the time of BREXIT but I can't remember which one was recommended.

I take photos of the not easily accessible stuff. A paper list worked for the long term storage but are a faff if you use that regularly. I think one of the the aps had space to put in use by dates which some found useful.

Good luck.

@BlackeyedSusan, thank you. I think I will just take the plunge and try a couple of the free ones out.

I was going to do a spreadsheet, but dh suggested someone must have come up with an app for it.

I’ve been ill for a few months and dh has made a real hash of all my storage. Particularly my once beautifully organised under-stairs cupboard. I can’t find anything, he puts new stuff at the front, old at the back, nothing in the right place, random items shoved anywhere he can get them to fit, regularly used items on the bottom of a massive pile and long-term/contingency items on top etc, it’s stressing me out and I need a system we can both easily use. I’m not a massive prepper, but do like to keep a decent stock and replace as used, now I can’t see what has/hasn’t been used, when I used to be able to just do a quick check before doing the shopping. I suspect I have overbought a few items recently, purely because I can’t see if we have any stored. I hate feeling disorganised.

Bumping this as it would really help - any suggestions?
