Large Economy Size

Eons ago I was cooking for what seemed like a large family, although in reality it was only 3 kids and 2 adults. So whenever I bought something at the store, I bought the large economy size.
Habits are hard to break, and I find myself continuing to buy the biggest size of dill pickle chips, mustard, catsup, etc. But recently it occurred to me that there's just hubby and me here, and we really don't eat through those large economy sizes very fast. Besides, the big jar of pickles only fits on the top shelf of the refrigerator with the milk, tall bottles of syrup, and big bottle of catsup.
So, much as it will pain me, I'm going to buy those small sizes from now on. And maybe I can finally get the two gallon-size jugs of milk to fit on the top shelf.,
