By buying in bulk it should be less expensive plus if you click on the green Amazon box on the main forum page then OCF will also benefit by getting a small kickback. It may only be a few cents (when put together with other purchase kickbacks add up) but it really does make a difference to a small nonprofit who runs on a shoestring budget.
