What do you buy in bulk?

 Depends on areas, and countries, and generation, their shopping style must be different. 

You might go grocery shopping once a week, or every day.

And you might use delivery shopping.

Anyway what do you buy in bulk once or twice a year?

In my case, laundry detergent. Because I use a little bit special one , and I can't buy them at drugstores. So I buy them net shopping, and the shop give a big discount on bulk buying. 

Why I need to buy such one? Yuki "had" skin trouble, --- recently he seems to have no trouble, even though he goes to skin clinic regularly. And when my granddaughter was born, she had also skin trouble. 

And now I reconsider to buy them again. They are, of course, more expensive than usual ones which are sold at drugstores.

We also buy bottles of water. There are two reasons, they are heavy, and it is a kind of disaster prevention measures. Well, here in Utsunomiya, we drink tapped water usually.

Then, disposable heat pads, wet sheets for floor cleaning, and paper towel.

They are more inexpensive by bulk shopping.

Well, before Yuki retired, we buy a little bit good quality SYOUCYU (alcohol) by bulk shopping. They are not sold at usual alcohol shops. "Unfortunately", considering our retirement budget  it was stopped. 

On the other hand we buy some health foods by bulk shopping. Yuki's special vinegar, and my special enzymatic? drink. When Yuki had lots of stress while he worked, he started to take the vinegar. Since then the habit has been continued. 

They are not sold at drugstores, and of course the shop give a big discount by bulk shopping.
