Bulk Buying- The Hidden Savings
As of last night, I had around 350 pounds of dry food sitting in my house (or more!). You probably think I’m nuts, but I just received my bulk order of baking goods and got 250 pounds of food in one go, to add to the more than 100 pounds of food I already had […]

Often, this occurred at the end of a day in which we’d done a lot of walking, so I assumed that that was the cause, but after this complaint became more frequent, we started taking it a bit more seriously […]
