Buying Bulk Saves Money, Time, the Environment: Win-Win-Win

Buying in bulk solves three problems very vital problems in life. Buying in bulk boost finances, is healthy from a temporal-sentient point of view, and keeps our planet cleaner and less polluted. Oh, you don't understand how did my mental-math? I'll show my work:

1. Saving money. Anyway you cut it, whether it be bulk salmon or bulk soap, purchasing in bulk means less marketing costs for the individual items and a closer to wholesale price which means less expensive, and more mullah (that stays) for your pocket!
   
2. Saving Time. Buying bulk decreases the amount of times you have to go to the store and purchase refills. It's a hassle to have to write "buy more hand soap" on a grocery list, what? maybe 6-7 times per year if you go through one of those every 1-2 months?! Well, with bulk, you write "buy more xyz" as little as once per year, and food items as infrequently as once per month! Most of my soaps, and cleaners (with the exception of bleach and ammonia, because I go through those quickly but they're extremely cheap) I buy in huge large quantities and seriously, laundry detergent and dishwasher detergent (I wash a lot of my own dishes and ration out the laundry detergent well) for example, last me a year. That's just a huge relief either way, to only have to worry about buying laundry detergent or dishwasher detergent ONCE a year (or more likely ONCE every two years)?! That's awesome. We have 365 days per year. What are some other cool creative, successful things you could be doing with your time now that you don't have to go to the grocery store for almost any kind of cleaning supply for the entire year?!! That's just rad! Here's a mini list of the items I buy in bulk
   • Handsoap (1x/year)
   • Dishwasher soap (1x/1-2year)
   • Laundry Detergent (1x/1-2year). Yes, the same thing of laundry detergent and soap has lasted me almost two years!
     
   • Toilet cleaner (1x/year)
   • Fish (1x/1-5month). (I freeze all my fish so you can easily buy a ton in bulk and freeze it for 5 months and if you get canned tuna, that can go for 6 mo. easily).
     
   • Vegetables (1x/month)
   • Cheese (2-4x/year). I'm dead serious. I freeze all the cheese and when I packet is gone in the fridge, just chuck one in the dairy bin from the freezer. You buy in bulk, you can buy cheese sooo infrequently but always have a ton.
     
   • Pasta (2x/year. I'm dead serious. You buy bulk pasta and even if you eat a lot of pasta, you only have to buy it twice per year!)
3. Saving the Environment. Buying in bulk is a direct enterprise in helping the environment because buying in bulk means less purchases which means less left over bottles and plastic wrappers simply because you'll be purchasing less plastic bottles and plastic wrapper and marketing packaging, and less plastic containers. Read up on the HORRIFYING Pacific Trash Vortex to fully understand the global wide "too much trash" problem. Basically, we're pumping so much plastic wrapper and bottle refuse into our ocean. Seriously. Seriously. How f$@ked up is that?! Couldn't we re-use our bottles instead of litterally pumping them into our ocean water?! The disgusting physiological ramification of this is mini fish eat the mini shreds of plastic, bigger fish eat the mini fish, we eat the bigger fish and therefor consume plaste. Read up on the PTV, it's nasty, very real, and very frigthening stuff; I'm becoming very interested at the very least informing myself of that problem and I donate toa charity that helps solve it. So, but buying in bulk, you purchase one huge one huge container that you can likely reuse and that saves the environment, the ocean, and our planet!
   
4. *Saving you from Disorganization. My little bonus perk idea. May not work for everyone, but truly works for me! This one seems like an odd ramification, but truly, I reuse over 50% of the bottles and containers I get that are "wrappers" typically discarded after opening something or using something for 1)organization, 2)environmenal safety and 3)cheaper. Some of the containers that contain products are as sturdy and useful as one you'd spend $14.99 on at the Container Store! True!. I'm an organizational freak so buying in bulk works toward this end, too!
   

Buying in Bulk saves the environment, saves you money, and saves you time (less trips to the store)! Bulk is a win-win-win!!
