We used to belong to Sam's Club. We have talked of joining Costco. The problem for us is buying in bulk. When our daughter was at home, the annual fee was easily worth the membership. We would buy a 3-bottle pack of shampoo and large boxes of sandwich bags.
We are not sure the member fee and driving the extra miles to get to the mega warehouse would be economically beneficial.
We do cook in bulk. I made stuffed peppers last night. I doubled the old recipe and made 10 halves. The two of us will enjoy them 3 nights in a row.
I also make meatloaf with 3.5 to 4 pounds of meat. These types of meals taste better the next night. The meatloaf can serve as lunch sandwiches too.
Sometimes, the bulk way is the savings way.

- Greetings! I have years, no decades, of financial experiences to share. I have a passion for education. I am a control freak in that I need to know where my $ goes. I continually ask myself do we need that, what risks are we taking with that investment, how/when can we get at our $, and just how much does Uncle Sam demand of our every earned $. Stay tuned to my life choices now and my references to life choices/experiences from my past.
