Is it cheaper to get bulk items (from Sam's etc) if you are catering yourself of just a local store?

The prospects in these times are pretty good. I live in a small town and we have a couple of malls doing brisk biz. The only thing you need to take care of is that the stuffs should be cheap and you should have variety.

List it yourself and have 'pickup only' - avoid all the costs (mere cents after you register).

You buy from them in bulk.  Or by the items from a supplier in bulk.

I prefer the Costco membership - they carry the products I need at products I like and have a hassle-free returns policy.  In our area there are fewer Sam's Clubs, membership was slightly more expensive, and they don't carry the things I typically shop for.\n\nI haven't experienced BJ's.

Look for a used machine (new too expensive) and be sure to ask local businesses if you can place a machine. Do not go near a Locator service (lots of $$$), get into the habit of locating machines yourself first. Get locations first, then get the machine. Sam's Club, BJ's Wholesale or Costco have wholesale gumballs and won't gouge you for supplies.

I agree w/ you. I don't think a legitimate fundraiser would be selling a pack of m@m's for $3.00. I've never seen anything around where I live. If I've ever bought from someone outside a store it was usually our local highschool band/ cheeleaders or the boy or girlscouts selling for no more that a dollar or two for a box of cookies or candy bars. I know my son's candy that he has sold has never been more than a dollar.

Target your market and think about doing specialty baskets made for exclusively for the recipient.  That means taking orders and not buying items in bulk but you should see a bigger return than what you're seeing now.  Good Luck!

Yep, I think all of those stores/websites will have their own Black Friday sales too and yes, you will save more at that time.  But I guess it depends on the items you want, it may or may not be cheaper on Black Friday.  Why don't you purchase what you see now so you don't miss out on the current sale?  Then, if you see it cheaper later, just return it to the store.  I am pretty sure that if you made purchases online, you can return it to the actual store, if there is one.

Groceries arnt that expensive in US as compared to rent.\n$100/pm should get you best groceries. \napple (lb) costs about $1-$3.\nNevada I assume is cheaper than other states, but I doubt Las Vegas is.\n\nThe important thing is raw foods, or unprocessed foods are generally cheap. Processed food are expensive. Anything were labor goes in the product is expensive.\n\nCook your own and you are good to go.

Convenience and time savings.\n\nIf I can store my grocery list on the company website, and just check the items I need and have them delivered...great!\n\nIf I can put in a standing order, and have items shipped with some frequency, so I don't run out...better!\n\nIf the company automatically offered the best prices and gave me a discount as sales were run, I would be a customer for life!

If I were you I would order some from online.  You have so many companies and price ranges to choose from that way.  \n\nGood luck.

Anything on the Wendy's $.99 menu or anything on McDonald's $.99 menu.  You can get a few packs of gum with 5 sticks per pack, a couple of candy bars at the check out line, a corndog at Sonic, a pair of socks for a baby, sometimes a set of clothing if it's on clearance at walmart in the kids' section, a dozen regular sized eggs at the grocery store, a head of lettuce, about a pound of tomatoes, nearly 3 lbs of bananas since they're usually $.39 per pound, miniature votive candles, 25 ft of Saran wrap, 25 ft of aluminium foil, those li'l plastic zip lock bags, cheap packages of plastic reusable cups...tumblers I believe is what they're called, a 4 roll package of toilet paper, 1 roll of paper towels, a Budget microwave dinner, a pint of HEB ice cream,  a few cans of cat food or dog food, a package of peanuts, 2 stamps, 2 phone calls from a pay phone, if you're at Gardenridge usually a cool 5"X7" picture frame you can put on your desk.  Sometimes you'll find a cheap dollar theater that will grant you admission with a simple $1 bill...yes, they're still around believe it or not.\n\nLastly, yes you can get something cheap at a dollar store but look at all the better things you can get!\n\nAnd don't forget, 10 dimes, 20 nickels, 100 pennies, 2 half dollars, 4 quarters and 1 silver dollar.
