I never forget the alcohol :-)

However I tend to forget flavour-enhancing things that I don't use every day and only think of when I go to use them, and get annoyed we don't have them- like dark soya sauce, cinnamon, fish sauce, mirin, brown sugar, etc.

Naturally I don't write them down, and then don't buy them, then get annoyed when I need them... and so the cycle goes.

Tin foil and cheese

Bin bags, washing up liquid, tin foil, condiments, poo bags ☺️

I always forget washing up liquid until I’m squeezing the last drops out of the bottle

Usually the one thing I've gone in for...no matter what it is. I spend £20 on other stuff but forget that particular item.

Oh and bin bags! Always forget them! Hidden down some obscure aisle

Soy sauce and tonic water.

I always forget the store cupboard type things - tomato ketchup, soy sauce, flour etc.

And I usually only realise once I've started cooking and need that ingredient!

Cat food, dog food and razors!!

The cupboard staples you always assume you have like Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, tomato puree. Oh and shampoo, I'm always running out.

Bin bags! No idea why but it seems I’m not the only one at least!

Toothpaste and interdental floss - we always think of the 'essentials' but forget what are our routine items

Washing up liquid and onions . Just when you want to make a spag bol, or want to soak your pans - the cupboard says no

Coffee - just when you think you have that 'spare jar' in the cupboard, and need your morning caffeine fix - luckily I had some sachets in a handbag from a recent hotel stay - saved the day

Loo roll, washing up liquid, ketchup!

Tea bags. We all drink a lot of tea and fill up the kitchen tea caddy from a large box in the garage. Always assume there's lots in the garage and then forget to buy more.

For me it's pepper! Or similar things like salt

Though probably whatever I went in to buy that was the most needed

Always non food items. Bin bag, washing up liquid, tissues.

Washing up liquid. Every damn time. Currently using hand soap in desperation

salt, pepper, spaghetti, olive oil - normally 'everyday' items that just drop off the list when planning other things.

Food bin liners

Bread, despite using it for lunchtime sandwiches, have had to cobble packed lunches together with corn cakes/mini sausages/sausage rolls etc in the past to make up for lack of sandwich!

Cat food.
It's always on my list but often forgotten

Bin bags, tin foil, ketchup. Anything that I don't buy weekly so when I need I forget it.

It's usually a fruit or vegetable, something I need for a dinner as well. Normally I have 'dreamed' I had one or two in the fridge but clearly not!

Almost always bin bags, dog food and loo roll. Very annoying!
