Bulk Up and Save


Make groceries in bulk. Capitalize on the savings that can be derived from buying in larger quantities. A good idea is to team up with other households like friends, neighbours or relatives and purchase the large case of milk that has 8 packs instead of 2 pack each.
I was surprised when I compared the price of an item at the supermarket against the price per unit in a case. The savings were as much as $3 per unit on a case with just 12 units. These savings add up especially if this is done for many items.
Not everyone can afford to buy everything in bulk and store away. Teaming up with other families reduces the initial investment required for bulk buying while still taking advantage of the savings that can be derived. Since bulk buying takes up space when transporting, an arrangement can be made where your family buys a few item, and the others do the same with different items. This makes the process equal for everyone involved and overcomes the challenge of transportation space.
What are some of the items that this can work with?
