I do shop at stores that sell bulk items.  But buyer beware some items can be less at regular stores if you buy them in smaller quantities sometimes get more for your value . But at some bulk stores you can also get items that can save you a bunch of money and get more for your dollar that way to. So its always good to have a little note pad and pen on hand so uc an price compare to see if your saving money or spending more

I have a Sam's and Costco's membership and enjoy the benefits of being able to buy in bulk.  This saves me a lot of time and money.  :)

We have 6 kids and buy a lot of stuff in bulk, like paper towels, toilet paper, dish washing detergent, and diapers. Sam's is great for these items. We go every month.

I never thought to buy items like those in bulk.  Thanks for the thought.  I don't use places like Sams club, because the nearest one is 50 miles away.  Not to many stores here for competition as far as getting really good prices.

usually dont buy in bulk unless I see something on clearance. Like meat then I freeze it.

I like to buy in bulk, but only for non food items. Sometimes when I got grains or flour in bulk, I had to throw it because of bugs.

I have always done that.  Got it from my Mom.  I don't like going out everyday or even every week to shop.

Unfortunately I don't have any warehouse clubs near to my home - they're a good 50 minutes away. However I do use the opportunity to buy bulk at my local Super-Walmart. I can sometimes buy 2 or 3 months worth of products for a small discount and do use coupons whenever I have them. Do you have to be working to make use of Sam's Club and other warehouse stores or can anyone go in? I'd like to more fully explore this but I am a housewife and so therefore don't work (as such!).
