I thought, since I am mishap free today, that I would share the fact that I am starting to notice tendencies of slight hoarding in other areas of my life- point in case:
- I have 5 (yes, you read that right)- 5 UNOPENED canisters of shaving cream
- 3 unopened bottles of body wash (Irish spring, yeah!)
- Toothbrushes in bulk (aka-4 pack)
- Toilet paper like I was housing an army (Sam's club, thank you)
This is just the short list. I know I bought a lot of these items because I a) had a coupon, b) buy in Bulk at Sam's to save money or c) am sub consciously letting my inner OCD personal hygiene freak take over on shopping trips
I have to pose the question: Is buying in bulk that bad? I mean it's not like toilet paper and body wash goes bad. Please feel free to chime in on this particular discussion.
To Buy in Bulk or not to Buy in Bulk...that is the question....
i think buying in bulk can be beneficial and you can save money. for example, paper products, such as toilet paper or paper towels, are definitely costly, and buying them in bulk can be beneficial to your wallet as well as your hands and bum (since you wont run out as quick). Other items with a short shelf life are not so beneficial to buy in bulk. this is not a solid answer for one side, because i can see advantages for both.
