October 7, 2009

People love to shop at Sam's Club or Costco.  I have found that when I go to one of those mega stores that I tend to buy too many things.  I have also found that buying in multiples is not necessarily the cheapest.  I can get smaller amounts that end up being cheaper (in the long run) than at Costco.  My family is decreasing in size and I don't need bulk like we did when the children were at home.  If I buy in bulk I tend to buy items that are not perishable or I may buy food if I am having a family barbecue or party.

My advice on not spending too much is to do some price comparisons.  Don't give in to your compulsions.  Make a list prior to going to Costco or Sam's club and stick to it.  If you need to save money buy only what you need!  In the long run you won't be sorry.
