Do you bulk buy

Because you should


It’s convenient and good for your biceps – once a semester anyway.

If you can drive or live near Costco or Makro, good for you.

But the rest of us have to resort to extreme lengths to clinch those deals.

And paying less than a pound a gram for your goods is nothing but a dream for most of us.

But what if you bulk buy?

Pay for it, save it, use it later, costing you less in the long run.

Keynes said: “In the long run we’re all dead.”

These students disagree.

Rice

Coming to the end of the semester, this guy has nearly got through it all. £1 a kilo of “good” rice

Cereal

For size comparison

“It was 50p in Costco, I couldn’t leave it.”

Toilet Roll

“Bulk buying not only saves you money but also provides peace of mind.”

Tuna

There’s plenty more fish in the sea- they said.

“It was something like £25 for several multipacks and individual cans: I got them REALLY cheap at Poundstrecher.”

Fabric Softener

But he smells good all the time

“It was like a three for £10 in Morrisons. I used to always spot it and thought it was too good to pass up. I remember buying some and it was still on the following week. I couldn’t resist so ended up spending about £50 on detergents alone.”

Protein 

Do you lift bro?

Looking triangular may be your aim, do it for 45p cheaper a bar if you buy in bulk

Spices

It’s the only six pack I’ve got

Tea

I’m northern, I love tea.

Hand wash

To clean 99% of bacteria you need make sure handwash is available 100% of the time

“I got them 3 for £2 so I bought loads, this is all  have left.”

Beans

All of the food
