I never finished my diatribe about our shopping excursion, did I? Sorry! I didn’t forget about you. I know you have been waiting with baited breath. Some of you might have even turned blue and passed out!
I must say that I love buying bulk. We have a membership and are able to save LOADS of money by buying things in bigger quantities than we would normally. I have gone months without having to buy certain necessities at the store because of that store. I was finally able to get some dishwasher detergent so I don’t have to agonize over the dishes every day. I have such a complex with finishing dishes, they never get fully done. Now, I can just load up the washer and go. FANTASTIC!
We also bought my son a variety of juices and little boxes of soy milk. He loves doing things himself, and that is helping him exercise his independence safely. He adores being able to go to the fridge and help himself.
The only thing that would make the store better is if they had a section of shoes. I don’t know what I would do if I ended up in a bulk store with Air Jordans and a variety of women’s dress shoes, flip flops, sandals, and more. I don’t think I would ever have any money in my bank account.
One of our favorite buys at Costco…we get huge 500 packs of plastic forks and stuff..i dont’ care what anyone says…i love those things. Using them has cut WAY down on having dishes to do and stuff. It’s one of our guilty pleasures. They last forever!
