Buying in Bulk what can it do for you.

There are some good reasons. Number one you don't have
to go shopping all the time. Two, you always have certain
items in the house, such as pantry items. Three, the cost is less.
This is due to ruling out the middle man. If you buy a pound
of oatmeal as compared to buying 25 pounds the cost goes
down.

Buying in bulk also saves you time and allows you
to do activities you enjoy.

If you have never done this before. Start with one item
such as oatmeal.

Belonging to a coop is very helpful in this area. Our
coop orders once a month, and sometimes every other
month. Its all online, you just make a basket. One
week we order the next week we pick up the order.

There are also many companies out there that will let
you order with one flat fee for shipping.

When I first began putting beans in my families diet.
We ordered them from a company that offered many
different types of beans.


Just a thoughtful hint for the homemaker.
