And I stockpile Buffalo Chicken Bites at Costco every January because they only carry them then. I can get them other places, but the aren't the same.

I'm going to have to look for these...are they in the freezer section?
 
I wish I would've stockpiled more gluten-free goodies from when we were in Sweden: pepparkakor (gingersnaps), muesli, rye crisps, and the like. They were amazing and didn't taste like GF foods! They aren't made available in the states, which is crazy because one of the brands (Wasa) sells everything under the sun here, but no GF. It's truly sad. I'm returning to Sweden this summer, so you know I'll be filling a suitcase with the stuff!

The big thing would've been the Mojito Simmer Sauce that Trader Joe's discontinued years ago. It was amazing. I didn't know it was discontinued until I went to purchase some more - I bought at least one jar a week. We're still so sad about that one. We've also stocked up on Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Covered Peppermint JoeJoe's at Christmastime, but I've stopped doing that now that I'm gluten-free.

This week we are in Boston. Normally I don’t use any of the free toiletries that hotels leave out. But the place we are staying left a lavender and peppermint line from C.O. Bigelow and it is AMAZING. I looked for it on their website and every last review on their website for the lotion is from someone who fell in love with it at a hotel. I am just thrilled to have found a replacement I truly love.

The Colonial Williamsburg Lodge has Lavender Lemon toiletries that are amazing! I've fallen in love with them from staying there in the past, so every now and then I'll splurge on a bottle of the lotion and use it just on my hands so it will last longer. Yum!

If I could go back in time to hoard the Victoria's Secret Raspberry Glace scent I so would!

I bought a vat of Pear Glace fragrance oil and made my own perfume with perfumers alcohol, etc

You should poke around online at fragrance oil shops. I've kept my oldest in custom Forever Sunshine body products for a couple years. (and my favorite - B&B Hello Sugar)
 
The Pear Glace was another one of my favorites!! I just Googled an oldie but goodie store Lotions and Potions, and surprisingly they're still around! I wonder if they have a recipe hidden in their archives for these two scents?!!? I would be one happy chick rocking those old school scents LOL!

Why do they have to retire all of the good ones?? My oldest loved Hello Sugar!

Years ago I bought strawberry and cream scented shampoo - smelt good and was cheap. Originally could find it at two stores but then it disappeared. Fast forward to last year and it was for sale on a sale website - 6 bottles for $15 plus postage. I bought 2 boxes!
 
i just found out my fave face mask was discontinued at the body shop who knows when or i woulda stock piled it - and i spent about 45mins on their website yesterday trying to figure out what is similar to it now but alas... i'm over trying recommended by this and that kid at the chemist and just want my normal fave back that i know smells nice, won't turn my skin blotchy or itchy etc - ok rant over

oh yep, same with my coffee!

I'm down to my last two cookies...I'm having a hard time bringing myself to eating them. LOL
 
Years ago I would have stockpiled a Herbal Essences shampoo - I can't remember what it was exactly, but I lived the scent and it brought some good volume to my hair. I still haven't found a great replacement just some that I make do with.
I do stockpile Bath and Body Works' Secret Wonderland lotion. It's only available sometimes on their website so I grab it when my supply is low again and it's back up on the site.

Well I do buy Typhoo Decaf teabags from Amazon just because they are about 1/3 of the cost in one of my local coffee&tea shops. So much for supporting a local shop - not at that price! I always used Typhoo in England so it's just a happy memory thing. Actually I'd drink most any decaf black tea but the Brits and Irish make it good and strong which I like.

Red cabbage ( in a jar ) from Lidl. They only have it October /November... we can. Buy other red cabbage,but that is done the British or Italian way (a lot of vinegar,very sour ) this one is done like the Danish ones ,slightly sweet.

I have a similar thing... bottled Sauerkraut I bought from Aldi Supermarket (which is a German owned chain here in Australia) and just loved it only to find they only stock it the same as your problem... October/November and no other time during the year.
 
Honestly - really nothing. There isn't anything that I can't live without. Plus - I'm a Costco shopper. I don't get used to ANYTHING. Lol!
