Do the math: Buy Necessities in Bulk
If you can afford the initial cost and have storage space, buy the 24 pack of toilet paper instead of the 4 pack, buy an extra box of tampons when there's a sale, or buy the 64 oz Dish Soap instead of the 18 oz. These are items you know you will always need and use regularly. Buying in bulk is usually cheaper than buying the same quantity in smaller packages.
