What Do You Buy in Bulk?

I have a very fancy friend who wholesales for one when it comes to Wolford turtleneck body suits.

My very practical husband buys both toilet paper and tissue paper for our domestic dwelling center as though we’re the parents of eight, and I’m committed to raw cashew and dried mango containers which I’d love to pass off as nutritionally “timeless” and therefore omnipresent but I’m also prompted to refill both prescriptions twice a month.

I have also worn a different colored version of the same J.Crew cotton turtleneck ($34.50 or $29.99 + 40% off a pop depending on your color proclivities) every day this week which seems to indicate that I, too, am at risk of becoming a turtleneck-bulk-shopper.

And if money were no object? I might be a Louis Vuitton shoe buyer in bulk, too. Of course, though, money is a very real, very dense (though not literally very heavy) object, so I will continue forward on a fateful quest toward social proprietorship by way of incessant, repetitive Instagram posting and pass the mic over to you, Mike.

What do you buy in bulk and, really now, do you need all that shit?
