You might say "household items" or "home goods."
Daily necessities works well, too.
Cleaning supplies would be items like laundry detergent, dish soap, surface cleaner, etc.
Toiletries would be items you apply to yourself, shampoo, hand soap, perfume, makeup, etc.
The only choice you made that probably would not work is commodities. That is usually only used in the business/financial world.
Best of luck with your studies!

Thank you for teaching. I will try to remember "I'm gonna go grocery shoppong".

A common phrase used would be "I'm gonna' go grocery shopping" or "I'm going to buy some groceries."
Although not widely used in conversation, you can also use the term "household items" for general things like cleaning material and other daily necessities* (note the correction: daily necessaries).

The word "groceries" is all-purpose. It can mean food, supplies, whatever.
