Finding quality natural products at affordable prices can be a challenge. Many shoppers want to buy eco-friendly, health-conscious items but hesitate because of the cost. The Ben Franklin Buying Club offers a smart solution: bulk discounts on a wide range of natural products. By purchasing whole cases from trusted vendors, members save money while supporting sustainable and healthy living.

What the Ben Franklin Buying Club Offers
The club partners with well-known suppliers like United Natural Foods (UNFI), Frankferd Farms, and Frontier Co-op. These vendors provide a broad selection of natural and organic products. Members can buy in bulk and enjoy discounts on items that cover many daily needs, including:
Cleaning supplies
Food staples like flour, beans, grains, sauces, and chips
Frozen meals
Milk substitutes
Seltzer, snacks, and drinks
Health and beauty products such as soap, shampoo, body wash, toothpaste, and deodorant
Household goods including paper towels, bath tissue, facial tissue, paper plates, and reusable silverware
Buying in bulk means purchasing a whole case of these products, which lowers the cost per unit and reduces packaging waste.
How Bulk Buying Saves You Money
Bulk buying is a proven way to cut costs. When you buy single items, the price often includes extra packaging and handling fees. Buying a whole case removes many of these costs. The Ben Franklin Buying Club passes these savings directly to members through special bulk discounts clearly marked in the store.
For example, purchasing a case of organic flour or a pack of natural shampoo bottles can save you 10-20% compared to buying individual units. Over time, these savings add up, especially for families or individuals who use these products regularly.
Benefits Beyond Savings
The club is not just about saving money. It also supports a lifestyle focused on natural, sustainable products. By choosing items from vendors like Frankferd Farms and Frontier Co-op, members support companies committed to organic farming, fair trade, and environmentally friendly practices.
Additionally, buying in bulk reduces the frequency of shopping trips, saving time and lowering your carbon footprint. Bulk packaging also means less plastic waste, which benefits the environment.
How to Join and Get Started
Joining the Ben Franklin Buying Club is simple. You can visit the store and look for sections marked with signs offering bulk discounts on products from UNFI, Frankferd Farms, and Frontier Co-op. These signs indicate which items are available for bulk purchase.

If you have questions or want to learn more about specific products, contact Victor or Krista in the store. They can also be reached by phone or email at benfranklin@oberlin.net or 440-774-5711. They are happy to help you understand the ordering process and how to maximize your savings.
Tips for Making the Most of Bulk Buying
Plan your purchases: Think about which products you use regularly and can store easily. Bulk buying works best for non-perishable or long-lasting items.
Share with friends or family: If a whole case is too much for your household, consider splitting it with others to enjoy the discount without waste.
Check storage space: Make sure you have enough room at home to store bulk items safely.
Look for seasonal deals: Some products may have extra discounts during certain times of the year. Keep an eye on announcements from the club.
