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.

Last Week’s Frugal Accomplishments
Last week was all about making repairs. I mended a pair of pajama pants, a jumper, a handkerchief, a napkin, an apron, two dresses, a pillowcase, and a basket liner. I sewed a button back on a jumper, and I mended the embroidery on another jumper. I shortened the sleeves of a t-shirt for Elsa and I…
This Week’s Goals
I’ve been working on organizing several things lately. A few times, I’ve ended up spending more time organizing than I thought it would take, so a few of my goals for pushed aside for the pleasure of getting some things organized. I decided a couple of weeks ago to start including some of my cooking…

I gleaned olives on Saturday. I’ll be processing them this week. I canned 4 quarts of giardeniera, using cucumbers from our garden. I canned 24 quarts of pears. This is just one side of my front walk; both sides have basil, plus there is more basil behind this. This pictures was taken after I made…
Last Week’s Frugal Accomplishments
This past week was a week of freebies more than a week of active frugality. We were given a bag of apples from someone’s tree. We received 10 pounds of ground beef that someone was getting rid of, as it had been in her freezer for over a year. She gave it to us in…
Last Week’s Frugal Accomplishments
I picked blackberries from the garden. I also cut Swiss chard and green onions from the garden this week. I harvested 2 small Early Girl tomatoes. They are already quite small because of the intense heat. Usually they are bigger at this time of year, so I don’t know if my other ones will be…
I wish I could! 🙂
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.
