Bulk Barn is a popular option for those who like to buy snacks or small batches of specialty products, but what’s really worth picking up at the retailer?
To find out, we asked ChatGPT what the best and worst things in the business are, and there were some answers you might expect and others that were a little more left-wing.

It also listed dried fruits, spices and herbs, baking supplies, granola and granola, candy, chocolate, pasta and grains as smart things to buy at the store.
“Overall, Bulk Barn is a great place to buy staples in bulk and save money,” noted ChatGPT. “Just bring your own reusable bags or containers to reduce waste!”
Regarding the worst things to buy, the bot had some thoughts and opinions.
“While Bulk Barn offers a wide range of quality products, there are some items that may not represent the best value for money,” it said. “Here are some items you may not want to buy from Bulk Barn.”
The first thing it listed was fresh produce.
“Although Bulk Barn offers some dried fruits and nuts, it’s not the best place to buy fresh produce,” it explained. “Choices can be limited, and you may find better price and quality at a grocery store or farmers market.”
Meat and dairy were mentioned next, which makes sense since the store doesn’t stock fresh items in those categories.
In terms of the treats, this is where it gets interesting.
“While Bulk Barn offers a wide variety of snacks, some pre-packaged snacks can be more expensive than buying them at a grocery store,” it noted. “It’s best to compare prices and check sales before you buy.”
It had a similar rationale for not buying items like tea, coffee, cleaning products and personal care products from the store, saying you might find better prices and a better selection at other stores.
“Overall, Bulk Barn is a great place to buy bulk groceries and snacks, but it may not be the best place for all your shopping needs,” it said. “Be sure to compare prices and quality before you buy.”
While ChatGPT may just be an artificial intelligence program with somewhat limited data, it’s hard to argue its points in this case – so make your purchases wisely while shopping at the retailer!
