our shopping can be a bit on the weird side where i'll buy 3 cases of corn, a box of ketchup, a cooler full of frozen veggies, and 4 cases of mac-N-cheese because it was all on sale.
I won't have to buy any thing like that again for a whole year, and can buy 40 lbs of chicken or pork, or 50 packages of Bacon, when it comes on sale next month.
it all rotates through.
the bulk buying can present a umm slight variety problem at times but there is always food down stairs.
