Consider these questions before
you buy anything in mass quantity:
Will I need to use this many items? (20
tubes of toothpaste is not a logical choice for one person).
Will I use this
entire product before its expiration date? (A gigantic carton of strawberries
can only stay fresh for so long).
Will my roommates be willing to split the
product and the cost? (Sure a gallon of milk can be consumed by 3 roommates
before it sours, but not if 2 of those roommates are lactose-intolerant).
Will
there be a place to store this before I use it? (Buying 50 rolls of toilet
paper, no matter how good the price, is not practical if you share a tiny
bathroom).
If you can answer all of these questions in the affirmative, then
buy in bulk and enjoy!
