You clearly have no idea about what you are talking about. I've been buying bulk everything I can for a long time and I don't see any downside to it.

It's smarter in every single point: - I buy what I need instead of what was decided by the packager. - I don't buy a package to throw it away and buy a new one next time. What a waste of money on top of the environmental impact. - It's way more efficient for shopping. When things are organised in bulk it's visually much easier to spot in comparison with packaged stuff with random designs in aisles. - Never experience "queues at stations" so this is a non problem in my 2 decades experiences of shopping in bulk in various cities/countries




Your time is worth zero, and other folks time is worth non-zero. That's one way to get your conclusion. The other way, is you're just wrong.
