Question

What are the best grocery items to buy in bulk?

Answer 1

Toilet paper.  Kitchen towels. Washing powder. Fabric conditioner. Washing-up liquid. Shampoo. (hair) conditioner.  Meat. Fish.

You can buy things like potatoes in bulk - such as buy 1 bag, get 1 free but I'd cook some up, mash them or boil them / roast them, wait for them to cool then put them in zip-lock bags in the freezer.  

Answer 2

Meat-repackage as soon as you get it home into single meal packaging trimming as you would to get ready for cooking. So conveinient to just remove a package from the freezer in the morning to cook that evening. And not have to think about fussing with it too much. And if planning to have company-Take out two packages!

Paper towels

ToiletPaper

Soap.

Different varieties of noodles

Answer 3

When it comes to buying in bulks I stay focus on items like toilet tissue, paper towels, soap, toothpaste,(bleach, fabric softener, washing powder I keep at least 2 extra)  and can goods such as string beans, corn, mixed vegetables, raviolis or spaggitto for families with smaller children. Dry beans.

I also own a deep freezer and I keep a list of what is bought and how many of those items are in there. I cross off the used items when I remove things. This gives me a quick glance when going grocery shopping

Answer 4

Things that won't go back very quickly... pasta and sauces, canned soups, meat (just throw in freezer).

Answer 5

You don't want to buy anything that you can't use up before it goes off, but there are a lot of things, really depends on where you shop and the discounts you get.

Things you know you are going to use such as toilet paper/paper towels/cleaning supplies.
