Buy a pack of chocolate

Buying wholesale candy is not something that most people think of when looking to save money on the household budget. In some respects it's probably the last thing you would think of. If you are considering buying household items in bulk it's typically dry goods and cleaning products as these tend to have a long enough self life to merit a wholesale purchase.

But candy has a longer shelf life that you would normally think. Most people buy and consume candy and chocolate pretty quickly. Lets face it who wants to wait a month before tucking in to a bar of your favorite candy. So you might be surprised to learn then, that candy can store for, on average, 6 months and more. Some types his can be even longer, up to a year or more.

Another factor is the concept that candy and chocolate are a 'one off' purchase, a treat every now and again. However think again, next time you're at the grocery or convenience store think about how many times you pick up a candy bar, box of chocolates or even a pack of gum. You will find it is more often that you realize.

If you have a family then this is another area to consider. Just think of the number of parties, holidays & events that take place during the year where a supply of candy and chocolate is required. If you are a normal parent, what generally happens is, a few days before the event you go rushing around in a mad panic getting everything organized.

Here's the thing, making a rushed purchase just to get it done is seldom the most economic way to go about things.

Now if you were to add up all these purchases over a year and get an average for a month you may be very surprised at what you spend. You might think about how much you would save by buying wholesale candy, considering that buying wholesale can save you as much as 50%.

Think about it for a moment and do the math. When you buy a pack of candy, say for $2, buying a case of 12 at a wholesale price you can get the same candy for $1. This is a big 50% saving. Similarly with chocolate, if you pay $10 for a box of chocolates a bulk purchase of 6 can again save you 30% - 40%.

You can get even more saving you go for unwrapped candy and chocolate and these are great for parties and events. The best thing is almost any type of confection you can think of can be purchased in bulk. Better yet it's delivered right to your door. Another great benefit of course, is that you have a supply of your favorite candy ready and waiting for any social event you might be having, very handy during the hectic holiday seasons.

So it makes sense to buy wholesale candy. You could literally save yourself a mint! Why not pay a visit to thelittlesweetshop.com ...now where did I put those chocolate almond truffles...
