To combat rising food prices, consider buying in bulk, as it can lower the cost per unit and reduce trips to the store, saving on gas and impulse buys. Smart bulk purchases include shelf-stable foods like pasta and cereal, household items like toilet paper, and beauty/self-care products. To determine if a bulk purchase is worthwhile, compare the price per unit. Avoid buying perishable items or those with short expiration dates in bulk.
