They are open 24/7 and are located in five, almost six states, and are a great company to work for.We occasionally buy nuts and some other bulk things at Sam's Club, but for us we have to drive about 20 minutes to get there, but if we ever need anything we have my dad stop in to get something after work, because he works close to the store. We buy our bread at either Panera or a local bakery and sometimes we buy some other health foods at one of our local health food stores. In addition, my mom buys all/most of our produce at our local farmer's market every week in the summer, spring, fall and occasionally in the winter. She also has the chance to buy our bread from a vendor at the farmer's market who makes natural bread that is baked in a type of oven that is found in only 40 locations in the United States. Also, we buy most of our cheeses at a specialty store that imports cheeses, olive oils, pastas, and other things from around the world. Basically we shop at Meijer's and our local farmer's market/specialty stores.

Menard's Hardware Store has an excellent food section for bulk stuff ... we buy olive oil, dried fruit, and bulk cereal there. I also stock up on various times of the year for rock-bottom prices on certain items.

There may not be many things they need in bulk, but milk, bread and salad are worthwhile. Laundry detergent, a few other things.

We don't buy a lot of things there, mostly shelf-stable staples like oil, flour, salt, butter (which we either freeze or clarify), etc. Pretty much anything else goes bad before we can use it all. We also get things like batteries and water filters there.

Over 100 people waiting at the door when it opens. So I shop at regular stores that open a little early before the Canadians come down. I can buy a lot of things at a better price elsewhere. Except baby carrots, peanut butter and a few frozen products. The only reason I go is if I need tortillas.

I always have a list for SAMS and Costco, but I prefer Costco. I am glad Josh and Anna are out doing things in DC and making their way as a family. God has plans for each one of us and I am glad that the Duggars have let us in on their lives.

I find better deals using coupons and sales at grocery stores. Do Josh and Anna need that much bulk with 2 adults, 2 toddlers and a baby? I also feed a family of 5 and find that Costco bulk goes bad before we could use it all and it more expensive then the grocery store(though those Costco muffins and other bakery items are sure tempting but 650 calories for 1 muffin is a lot!)Cammienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6925412444274057427.post-63215626911407345512013-07-21T22:46:16.735-05:002013-07-21T22:46:16.735-05:00We live in Arkansas too.

That is too fine a point for me to see. When I read these posts that say that the Duggars are doing something wrong or should be doing some other thing, it sounds like a judgement (whether or not is intended as one).<br /><br />One of the things I most respect about Michelle is that I have never heard her say a negitive thing about anyone.
