10 Sure-Fire Signs You're Turning Into Your Mother
8. Buying Everything In Bulk
Is there anything more satisfying than buying a ton of stuff, knowing that if and when the day should ever come, you'll be well-prepared against that future toilet-paper shortage, or the great tomato ketchup debacle of years ahead. No? Okay, so maybe the idea of buying simply everything in bulk isn't everyone's idea of fun, but let's face it - the older you get, the more you start realising that your mother's penchant for buying so much in advance is actually a brilliant idea. Okay, so it's not exactly the coolest, most trendy thing in the world to, when asked about your Saturday afternoon plans, go 'I'm hitting up Costco to bulk buy everything I need for the next few months', but it'll all pay off. You're being organised, you're thinking ahead to your future, and sure your friends might scoff and make fun; but let's be honest, the next time they come around and lament forgetting to buy toilet paper or the correct food, you can silently - or not so silently - bask in the glow of a good decision.
