bulk buying
Warehouse store shopping
Bulk buying is purchasing goods in large quantities, typically to secure lower per-unit prices.
Retailers buy in bulk from wholesalers; consumers do the same at warehouse stores.
The practice assumes you'll use what you buy before it spoils or becomes obsolete: We do our bulk buying at Costco once a month.
