We definitely save money when we shop at a bulk discount store…but that’s because we only buy select items…generic ones!!!
That’s so good to hear! We buy a lot of generics, but sometimes, I feel name brands are better. BUT, definitely not always!
When the kids were little we used to shop at BJ’s and bought much of our food in bulk – mostly staple items, because at that time (1980s) they didn’t have the selection of bakery, meats, etc. that they have today. We saved money.
Now that they’re all grown & moved out – I don’t have a membership myself, but piggyback on my daughter’s when she goes to the discount stores. It’s great for her as one grandkiddo is still in diapers, and I still like the food items I can get (especially cheeses and meats!)
How did you get that video camera or web cam to move around like that? I’m going to start Vlogging.

Oh, YES…baby products are a great thing to buy at big stores! I need to do that more often. I’m bad about just running to Target when I’m out of something.
It seems that a lot of the time, we’re short on cash and I hate to spend the extra $$ for larger size, even though it’s a better deal. That’s the only downside I see to larger clubs.
Oh – and my camera is a handheld one from Kodak. It’s a Zi6. LOVE IT!

I used to shop at discount stores quite often, however now that I’m short on time, I tend to hit the Target which is just across the street. It’s time I get back in the game. Great Vlog!

Thanks so much!! I’m the same…I need to take more time to shop. I’m guilty of just “running” to the store too often!
I love shopping at Sam’s Club. It’s kinda funny but my husband is the same way, he gets a kick out of going to the bulk store. I think though it’s just so he can drool over the electronics.
There are quite a few products that we buy there because we use a TON of them and save money … cheese slices, rice, and my beloved croissants.

Yeah, what’s the deal with the men getting so excited? Must be the large sizes that makes them feel manly! HAHA!
First- do you know what your getting in the discounted food. I heard you say that you purchased two large bottles of Ibuprofen because you need it. Why? If you are finding yourself or your family often suffering it may very well be because of the foods that you’re eating.
Please understand that because it’s cheap doesn’t mean its a good deal especially when it comes to your health. I challenge you to do some investigating about High Fructose Corn Syrup and partially Hydrogenated oils. Those two ingredients alone are in most everything you purchased and will much harm to you and your family over time.
Here is a link to a website for more information. Hope you will look at it. http://healthychild.org/blog/comments/much_high_fructose_corn_syrup_contaminated_with_mercury_new_study_finds/
I definitely think they are worth it. I love BJ’s wholesale club because you can use coupons along with their great deals. I also love buying in bulk because, with 4 kids, it saves me from making multiple trips to the store…which also saves gas $.
