10. Nuts
If you want to snack on nuts all day long then purchasing them from a warehouse club might be a good idea. That is, of course, if you can finish them before they go rancid.
When it comes to nuts for recipes, though, we’d advise you to stick to a supermarket selection. Buy the amounts you need and don’t worry about finding random nuts in your pantry months later- unusable nuts, at that!
Buy the next one will make your bank balance snap, crackle and POP!…..

BECAUSE I AM A SINGLE PERSON, I DON’T BUY A WHOLE LOT FROM THE BIG WAREHOUSE STORES AS PRICES ARE BETTER AT WALMART, DOLLAR, DISCOUNT, OR GROCERY STORES.
THE ITEMS I AVOID ARE THOSE SOLD IN BULK …PAY OUT IS TOO LARGE FOR SUCH LIMITED USAGE.
THE ITEMS I BUY ARE THOSE SOLD IN AMOUNTS I CAN USE, OCCASIONAL BULK ITEMS THAT DON’T SPOIL, THAT ARE A PRICE EQUAL TO OR SLIGHTLY LESS THAN OTHER STORES, CLOTHING ITEMS ON SALE THERE.
THEY SHOULD CONSIDER A WAY TO MAKE IT COST EFFECTIVE FOR SINGLE PEOPLE.
Yes – here is my list:
1. Never buy soda at club stores unless you drink so much that you can’t wait a week for a sale.
2. Don’t buy 100% juice either – I have yet to see a bulk price at a club store that I couldn’t beat at the grocery store sale or discount stores. Most recently, I bought 2 cartons of Doles 100% juice & 100% juice blends for $4.00 at Landis, a store that doesn’t usually have competative prices. And you can buy a 64 oz bottle of apple juice for $1.50-$2.00 on sale always at one of your local food stores. They just can’t match these prices.
3. Potato Chip Brands – Club stores may have great prices on generic brands of potato chips, but if you have a favorite brand of chips, buy them on sale at your local market. They run sales like BOGO free and multiple buy sales such as 2 Utz for $5 or 3 Lays for $6 and straight sales like Goods 12 oz bag $1.99 – just can’t beat these prices in bulk.
4. Ice cream Brands – I have yet to see Club stores beat Turkey Hill Ice cream 48 oz. on Sale for $1.99.
5. Vitamins – Never buy these at Club stores when you can get them on sale 2 for one or buy one get one 50% off at many stores
