Sam’s Club is having a free entrance this weekend from August 3rd through August 5th. I have saved a lot of money buying in bulk from Sam’s Club.
Check out my website for my shopping list for the best prices at Sam’s Club.

Today I’m bringing you two new recipes on the website. These took a while, because I kept making new batches, testing variations in the recipes, until I was satisfied. Plus, my family wanted to eat them as soon as they were done, which often left no chance to take pictures! One is for saltines. These…
Turning What You Have Into What You Want
As I opened up the box of stored baby girl clothes in the next size up, I noticed a little smocked dress that my friend April had given to me. She knows I love smocked dresses, and after her last little girl outgrew this dress, she passed it on to me. It had a few…
What I’ll Spend for Food
My Price Book Prices on food have changed a lot in the last few years. As our income has continued to decrease, I chose to stick closely to certain prices. With a $100 a month budget (for 9 people) to spend on food, including stocking up, I have become pretty strict about how much I will spend on…
New Recipe: White Bean Dip
There’s a new recipe up on the website for White Bean Dip. You can make this recipe with ingredients straight from your pantry. It’s an easy snack, especially if you’ve cooked up a big batch of beans and froze them in smaller batches. It’s also a great main course to send in a child’s lunch. Add…

I wonder what resources for bulk food purchases exist in Finland. Does anyone know?
Does Costco ever do this?
Hi!I love Sam’s Club. I have a plus membership it is really worth it.Pat
For individuals – none. We have bulk stores, yes, but you can make purchases only if you have a cafe or a restaurant or any kind of business (you need a business serial number for the card). They are just bulk stores, selling stuff in bigger packages, but the prices are quite normal. So, when we happen to have something with reduced price in a grocerie store there is a sign *Not for re-sellers* That doen’t mean that the sale is a good deal but the bulk prices are so high… 😀
I have never heard of them doing this. Perhaps someone else will know. Their prices are very similar on many staples, but they also carry many different things from one another, and their membership prices are vastly different.
I’d like to add that we get grain in bulk from Farmer’s Market (I grind my whole wheat flour) I think the price is very good, 0,70€/kg for organic wheat -> about 41 cents/lb
I went to this, spent way too much money, and ended up joining. The price was $40 with a $10 gift card if I joined today (probably this weekend) and 25 box tops (?, oh well, we’ll take them for my daughter’s old elementary school). While I can get some things for less when they are on sale, they have some things we like, such as the frozen Angus cheeseburgers on a bun for about $1.25 each (8 in a box for $10). I’m a single mom who works outside the home and the burgers are great when my teenage daughter gets home from school and is starving (at least she thinks so). Their bulk yeast works very well and I just keep it in the freezer until I need it. The bread flour is a good deal, too.I really admire those of you who grind your own wheat and make almost everything from scratch, but that just isn’t happening in our house due to time available so buying some things in bulk (granola bars for my daughter to take to school for when the hunger pangs hit mid-morning) is really helpful.
