Three Things I Often Buy on Amazon Subscribe and Save

April 29, 2022 by Lazy Man 5 Comments

This week we had a major financial event. Today was going to be my first chance to write about it. Unfortunately, I was so focused on the event, I only have time for a quicker article. I also like to end the week on lighter, fluffier post.

Here are some items that I get most (or all) months from Amazon Subscrible and Save. They are affiliate links, so if you choose to buy them I may earn a commission. That disclosure aside, I buy all these products (that’s the point of this post obviously), so I feel it’s more than fair to recommend them.

KIND Bar Minis, Variety Pack (30 count)

My kids gravitate to junk food. That’s almost all they’ll eat. However, they eat these Kind bars as if they were candy. And is a way they kind of are. We might have to start ordering two of these to get us through the month.

The only downside is that these are mostly nut-based, so we can’t pack them in the kids’ school lunches.

HIPPEAS Organic Chickpea Puffs (48 ounces)

My wife started buying these at the store for the kids. I wouldn’t have bought them because they are super expensive. The kids love them, they are healthy (at least much as a “puff” can be), and they can go to school.

Buying in bulk and with the 15% Subscribe and Save discount makes it more manageable. They each bring about an ounce and a half, so two kids eat 3 ounces a day. That’s 16 days, enough to get us through most months.

Orajel Jurassic World Anticavity Fluoride Toothpaste – Berry Blast Flavor

My kids will only use one kind of toothpaste and this is it. It’s hard to find, so I’m happy that Amazon carries it. I probably don’t need to get it as often as I do, but I’m nervous they’ll stop making it someday. At a price of around $2.50 it’s a great filler item to get up to 5 items for 15% off.

Caffeine Pills (250 tablets)

I’m adding this last one as a bonus. I don’t have to buy these very often. I use a pill splitter to make a 200mg pill a 100mg pill. For a little more than $10, I have around 500 days of caffeine. That’s two cents a day in caffeine costs. How Much is Your Caffeine Costing You?

Now it’s your turn. I can use a few ideas to get to the five items to unlock the 15% Subscribe and Save this month. What are some items that you buy on Amazon most months?

    Interesting list. We buy a lot from Amazon, but I’ve found staples to not always been a good deal. I eat Think bars, for example, and the Amazon price is still higher than Walmart’s(though their price has gone up a lot due to “inflation”). If I have trouble buying a staple at Walmart I’ll check Amazon, such as recently finding I could get my antiperspirant cheaper and so far consistently from Amazon. So far we don’t buy anything from them on subscription.

    By the way, I do keep caffeine pills around, though buy cheaper at Walmart. I’ve used them when I’ve decided to slowly being down caffeine intake, or if I’m not going to be able to easily get my daily coffee. I want no caffeine headaches.

      Our Wal-Mart isn’t very good, so I don’t go often. I can only get a handful of items there.

    I get this every month, even the months where I don’t have four other items. If nothing else, it’s a reminder to clean the filter, but it does seem to work pretty well.

    I get this every three months, about right for one per day. They do carry the exact same kind at our local grocery store, but it was out of stock half the time, so it’s just more consistent to get it from sns, and the price is about the same.

      I just added the dishwasher cleaner to my next Subscribe and Save. Thanks! I don’t know if we’ve ever cleaned our dishwasher, but it seems like a very good idea.
