buying in bulk
Posted on May 19th, 2007 by minutechaser
With the escalating cost of living, do you now find yourself scrutinizing price tags more often than you did before? I’m talking about regular folks here, not the rich and famous who can afford to shop with their eyes closed.
Being more price conscious means doing more comparison shopping. That’s what I’m teaching the kids now - to compare prices and quality before buying.
Buying in bulk is often cheaper. So pick up the two-pack or three-pack and do your division. If the price comes up less than the price of a single item, then go for the multiple.
In a household of kids, supplies go quick so it makes sense to stock up. You also save gas not having to go out and pick up one item at a time when they run out.
