Best ones are things we know we will eat/use:
Frozen shrimp – we make it often – esp. for a quick lunch or dinner.
Frozen chimichangas – same reason – I make some Spanish rice with it along
with a tossed salad.
Toliet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent. They
don’t spoil/go bad and it does not matter if you have someone to split the item
with you or not.
If you have someone to share the cost/item with, you can do more. Coffee,
teas, 5 gallons of salsa, mustard, ketchup, etc. I would not bother to freeze
these items for our own family and I can’t find a way to eat enough sandwiches
to use all of that mustard on my own. KWIM?
Before my sister moved away, we split a lot with her. I do some of the
splitting with my parents, since they are now empty nesters. The quantities are
really big at the warehouse stores. I have heard that their prices on
electronics and appliances is good, if you are in the market.

Sams?
