For me, it wasn't mayonnaisse but MARSHMALLOWS! I went grocery shopping one day with a list that included MARSHMALLOWS! So I bought them. Very next day, I discovered we were running out of spaghetti noodles and DD wanted spaghetti for dinner. So I stopped at Safeway on the way home from taking her to school, and got spag. noodles and remembered I needed MARSHMALLOWS! So I bought some more. 3 days later we needed milk. So I stopped at the grocery store to get 1/2 gal of 2% milk. Well, you guessed it, I knew we needed MARSHMALLOWS so I bought some more!!! By the end of that month, we had SIX BAGS of MARSHMALLOWS in the cupboard! Hubby ORDERED ME NOT TO BUY ANY MORE MARSHMALLOWS FOR A VERY LONG TIME!
In my defense, I should tell you that in 1994 I had some brain surgery that totally wiped out my short term memory (and to this day I still have problems when I'm under a lot of stress!)

Teresa, this time it was mayonnaise.  Last year it was taco seasoning.  I shudder to think what will happen when I run out of sesame oil - I've had the same bottle for twenty years.  What'll I do when I start buying them every week for two months?  (Can I sell them on EBay?)  Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one...
