CASE LOT SALES and How To Make Them Work For You!

It’s a great time to stock up on canned and other packaged foods that your family will eat since it’s CASE LOT SALE time. Prices are reduced and bulk quantities are available. YOU might not think it’s worthwhile or important to take advantage of them in your busy life, but there are SO MANY ways a temporary or long-term shortage can be created. I was shopping yesterday and in less than ten minutes added 4 cases of food to my cart. It took about that much time to date them and put them on the shelf.

Most all of us would rather be the ones able to help our neighbors in a shortage scenario, but if we can’t even feed our kids, we will add to the burden of others instead.

Here is a great video on a few kinds of food that will help your family most in an emergency, as well as how to store them so they’ll still be good when you need them:

Last, but still very important, is the idea of ROTATION. Kanban is a system used in industry that keeps inventory well-stocked and rotated. You can get as complicated or simple as you want, but consider what you learn through the following links. But whatever you do, don’t let the case lot sales end without you taking advantage of them…
