[quote=Anonymous]I buy in bulk and cook for myself. My guess is I spend about $110/month on fresh vegetables, fruits and seafood. But if there’s a sale on pineapples - like $1.75 for a whole one I’ll buy 10 at once and process them into frozen smoothies and pre-made drinks. I just bought a 56 Fl OZ container of Sesame Oil as another example. Am I going to use that much sesame oil in a month? No. It’ll probably last me a year but it’s cheaper to buy the larger sizes of high quality and expensive ingredients instead of going back for the same thing every week. 56 fl oz of Sesame Oil sold in my local Giant in 5 oz bottles would cost me $53. Because I bought it in bulk it cost me $22 or 50% off. That’s how you save regardless of your budget.[/quote]
