It is advantageous on my part if what I buy in bulk are in canned or bottled for they won't depreciate, but appreciate it, especially if the other stores ran out of them. There are disadvantages f buy in bulk for perishable goods. They will surely rot and you'll have big loses.
Better buy enough only. We have to conserve or give the remaining to the helpless.

Sure it is always this way for food that are bought in bulk without correct preservation
The cons are that you would not be able to afford it in the times of financial challenge. What about the burden of carrying it and offloading it.

Yeah when you are not financially okay you might not be able to make the purchase since you might also need the bulk money
I think if you don't need a big amount of something then bulk buying is not a wise choice.
Another thing is it's price may come down and then it'll be a major loss
You're so right , it really happens in reality.
That's why one needs to research properly before going for any such bulk purchases.
Depend on what am buying in bulk though, one major problem i have discovered with bulk buying is that one can easily get Carried about, it would be pretty hard to monitor how its been used, hence it could lead to wastage. Another problem is if its in the case of perishable goods, they could go bad before using them all.
Yes o. You need to carry out feasibility studies before you do it. Don't do business for the sake of others are doing it. Check out your passion in it first.
You might not be able to finish all the food before the expiration date since it is too much. Aside from the possibility of food spoiling, this discourages you from purchasing.
