Buying in bulk definitely saves money. The two main lumber yards I use have a significant price break at 500 BF. I build "Stickley" style furniture and use QS white oak exclusively. They also have monthly specials on various lumber. They put a big cart stacked with on sale lumber right by the cash register. Needless to say I have lumber and no idea what I'm gonna use it for. But its fun to have it and and the price aint gonna get cheaper. If you have room to store it I say "Go Big".
