That's an impressive list of donations, hand-me-downs and sending things, and hooray for the laptop going back to its real home!

With the pantry, I've found it helps to be extremely disciplined when putting groceries away or back: to always put the new boxes/packets/cans with the ones bought earlier -- and, ideally, behind them. That makes it easier to see how many you have left and to grab the one that's nearest to its Best By date to use next.

So good luck with cleaning out/using up the nearly expired stuff and organising what's left so it's easier going forward!
