Can you buy pallets of ammo at Sam's Club, line you can buy pallets of ketchup? If so, it might be worth a look.
And... If you are military or work for the feds, you get a free membership at Sams.
Its going to depend on what you buy.Is it cheaper to prep at Sams Club and buy in bulk, or near the same to just shop at walmart and skip the membership fee to Sams? The wife and I recently got a membership there and were curious of others experiences on whats worth while getting and what to pass up. Thanks gents!

The wife and I try to shop where we get the best deals.
AT Sam's we pick up stuff like Olive oil, dog food and bulk goods they are cheaper than at Kroger's or Wally World.
If Kroger's has a sale on can goods like the 10 for $10 then we stock up on can goods from them.
Most of the stuff we eat is canned by the wife. She cans every thing. Beans, chili, soups,
vegetables, meat and as I said just about every thing we eat. She calls it heat and eat.
I think it"s great. If I want Chili I don't have to cook a pot, I just open up a jar and heat it and eat it. It tastes just like you had made a pot because it is your chili or soup that has been canned.
That is how we do it. We buy the stuff that is on sale and stock up. Every month we shop at all three stores around us. We buy what is on sale at one of them for what we need. Now we have enough food between what the wifes cans,what we grow, what we buy canned, we have enough food to last us over a year.
Now we do buy some stuff that is dried like eggs, potatoes, milk, onions and stuff like that in number 10 cans. It is easer to store and a lot lighter.
So to answer your question. We shop from every one to prep.
So are you saying she will make a big batch of chili, then can it up? Or what? Im intrigued, That sounds like an awesome idea. Making single serving meals like that.

That what we do as well. In addition to all of the normal canned/frozen stuff, my wife makes up meal-sized portions and freezes (or cans) them. I've got chili, ham-n-beans, spaghetti sauce, pulled-pork, and lasagna ready to heat-n-eat.
