“If I see pancake mix, I buy four boxes to just make sure I have them.” Shoppers are continuing their bulk-buying habit amid uncertain supply, higher inflation and more meals at home.
Alexis Abell recently walked out of a BJ’s Wholesale Club outside Buffalo, N.Y., with 24 boxes of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese, a box of 50 frozen mozzarella sticks, a 40-pound bag of basmati rice and a 12-can pack of garbanzo beans.
