I buy things in bulk if I can get a good deal, know I will use them before they go bad and have some place to store them.
Things like toilet paper and other paper products I buy in bulk when I can get the best prices. I know they're not going to go bad and I have a set amount of storage space in my house, so no worries there.
I bake a lot, so I buy baking supplies in bulk when they are on sale.
I buy non-perishable items in bulk when I can get items at a discount. This is a better return that taking the same money to buy higher priced goods in small quanities as needed. It is also nice to never have to worry about running out of toliet paper
We belong to Costco, and do buy some things in bulk- mainly because it does save us money on the things we use a lot. We eat a lot of tortilla chips and salsa and both items are cheaper by ounce at Costco than the grocery store. As always though, unless you use everything you buy in bulk before it expires, it probably won't save you much, if at all.
We only buy certain things in bulk such as toilet paper and paper towels. I just try to get the best deals I can from local grocery store using coupons.
Thank you so much for this! It was great, I really enjoyed it and suddenly feel inspired, excited and ready to have fun again - no longer feeling stuck! THANK YOU!
I don't have a car, so it's difficult for me to shop at Costco and such. That said, there are certain items that are cheaper to buy on Amazon if you get three or more of them, such as almond butter, so yes, I do buy in bulk online.
Do not get sucked into the 9dollar fare these prices are to reel you in! So you pay your 9dollars you need to add fuel fees about 80 dollars fees 21 dollars in other fees plus tax all not included in your flight and that's one way I'm not sure if he clicked next you also have to pay your way home. To add to that you have to pay 30 Dollars for your carry on and 40 additional dollars for each checked bag! I flew spirit and their seats are redicioulsy close together my husband is 6'8 and his knees were at his chest, they would't accommodate for his height i sat next to q man that overflowed into my seat oh and that's another charge 20 dollars each to pick your seats so you can sit together if you are traveling with someone. When making a complaint their company is outsourced to inda and they were really rude. We flew southwest last time we tracked and loved it! We will not ever fly spirit again!!
OK, this one is going to sound weird...I am a web programmer by day, and I do a lot of database manipulation. Most of my colleagues turn their noses up at Excel, but it is the foundation of the data work I do.
I use Excel to generate the database scripts I need to do large amounts of data. My clients provide the spreadsheets with the raw data, and I use formulas to generate my scripts. It saves SO much time, especially when the same format spreadsheet is used. It used to take me about an hour to update speaker cap amounts with every spreadsheet. After we standardized on my tricked out spreadsheet, I am able to generate the complete script in about 5 minutes. And that is regardless of the amount of data.
I also use Excel to translate my project data between Bonsai and Remember the Milk. A few formulas and a macro or two and it's pretty automatic!
yes for non-perishables that we use a lot of (toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste), especially since we have a big household. Good to stock up on toilet paper anyways. ;) No for perishables (milk, bread, etc) since they have a short shelf life.
We do not buy in bulk. If something is at a fantastic sale, I may buy a few of them, but I don't think that is considered bulk. We have drastically reduced consumption, so there isn't a need to stock up.
I buy popcorn and paper products in bulk. When the option is available I buy meat in bulk at the grocery store when they offer a 10% off all meat purchases, including bulk meat bundles. Saved hundreds of dollars on meat the last few years by doing that.
I do look for sale items every week at local grocery stores, and buy several of a particular item when they're at a very good price. I try to keep the pantry and freezer stocked with basic, healthy ingredients for home cooking. Shopping at Costco doesn't seem to work for me--the sizes of many items are too large, and the prices don't seem to be better than Trader Joe's or chain grocer's sale prices.

I like buying used cars
There is nothing that I buy in Bulk... I live alone and if I bought items in bulk, it would all be going to waste.

I don't buy in bulk, mostly because I try to buy fresh food and produce. I try to stock up on household items though!

We always buy in bulk when it seems most cost-effective, though sometimes it gives hubby an excuse to "eat up" all our savings b/c "it's addicting."
But we've found stocking up on paper goods is best.
there are things I buy in bulk but most of the time, I use coupons on smaller items and ultimately end up saving more. I never buy produce in bulk.
I would if I was near a store that offered bulk items. However, the nearest store is too far away to shop on a regular basis.

Yes, I most definitely buy in bulk. Chocolate chips at costco for all my chocolaty baking needs.
I buy spices, oatmeal and nuts in bulk for the two of us.
I dont buy in bulk because I don't have room for oversized boxes and bottles, and I get better prices on smaller products.

I buy rice, oats, and flour bulk at Whole Foods. As far as packaged goods, only 7th generation toilet paper!

We buy in bulk when the deal is good and not so much that we can't live in our house the way we want. Mostly paper towels, toilet paper, and diapers.
depends on what it is. certain things are worth buying in bulk, some are not.
