Misc Household (Cleaning Supplies, Trash Bags).Fitness Supplements (Creatine, Protein Powder, BCAA's, L-Glutamine, etc).Caffeine Drinks (aka Coffee, 1/2+1/2 for Coffee, Energy Drinks).We don't buy a lot of snacks, and those that we do can sometimes be part of a meal (like chips with a hamburger or sandwich).
