Buying in Bulk...Living in Guilt
I love Sam's club...the thought of buying things in mass quantities is terrific and the savings are incredible. But I was struck with a very funny feeling the other day when I finally polished off a giant quantity of M&Ms. I was thinking, "There were a whole lot of M&Ms when I started. Now there are none. And I put them all in me...wow, I ate ALL those M&Ms. What's wrong with me?"
The same could be said for the 3-pack of Honeycomb cereal, the 6-pack of Cool Ranch Doritos or the 48-roll pack of toilet paper.

You really get an idea of how much you consume, whether it be M&M's or toilet paper. Hehe, both were used, so to speak.
yeah and it's made me shop different too, like today, I was perusing the baking aisle looking for chocolate chips and I saw they were on sale...4 bags for $10. Good price, but I immediately stopped myself and thought, "Can I live with the knowledge that I'm going to eat 4 entire 16oz. bags of chocolate chips?" 'NO' was the answer, so I just got one bag...
