Benefit(s)
Health & beauty purchases are great assets to manage in MakeLifeEasy, for several reasons:
- You can easily buy at least 30 days' worth of these products,
so you don't spend a lot of time and effort managing them.
- You can easily stock up on these items because they have long lifetimes.
- However, many products can go stale (e.g. lotions, medications, etc.) before you use them up,
so you have to watch out for overbuying.
See How To... Avoid Overbuying.
- Prices and sizes of products are irregular and fluctuating, so MakeLifeEasy's buying advice can be very useful.
- Sales occur often but not on any regular schedule, so stocking up can result in savings.
- These products are heavily "merchandised",
often with a lot of hype over nothing, so it can be relaxing and refreshing to avoid the hype.

Points to Consider
As Consumer Reports and other sources point out,
the highest priced products are often not the best.
Nor are the most advertised products the best.
Most products in a given category are very similar.
So it makes sense to shop by price, though you don't have to.
