Buying food in bulk can save you time and money.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Time
  • Warehouse
  • Warehouse membership
  • Friend
  • Storage space
  • Calcualator
  • Grocery list
  1. Step 1

    The cost of food is going up. The great news is there is a way to bring that price down. I have found that if you join a costco or a sam's club and go that route it can save money. First thing is to make a list and set a budget on EVERY SINGLE item.

  2. Step 2

    Make room in your cupboards, you will need the space. Go to the store. Before buying an item ask your self how likely is it that I will use this item before it expires.

  3. Step 3

    Put away items in cupboards. Eat the food. It does help if you can cook in mass amounts. It saves electric, time and mainly food.

Tips & Warnings
  • Split the cost of the costco card with some else. That can save up 50%.
  • If you are a single person household, consider split items with a friend and that will drive down the price tag.
  • To create more room in the home. Consider using bed riser under the bed.
  • Watch the expiration dates
