I own a janitorial supply business in Flint, MI. Three months ago, I joined The MSP Buying Group. This association allows me to receive discounts on services and products used in our daily operations. From my membership to date, I project a savings of $4500.00 - $5000.00 alone.

I had one of my accounting ladies gather all purchases that I have made to the vendors on the member savings program for all of last year and YTD this year. We have spent $28,501 on tools and equipment last year and the deal I get through the AFA's MSP connection is free standard freight. We are estimating our average invoice from Grainger at $750. Average freight from Memphis on those is about $50. That works out to about $1900 of shipping cost that I have saved. We use WEX for our yard truck fuel. We have spent $4673. If we saved 15% that would be about $700 we saved. I think the 15% is pretty close. We never pay the pump price. With Staples I have spent $12,413. The invoices do not tell me how much my discount was but if I only saved the minimum 40% then I saved $4965. That looks to me like I saved pretty close to $7500 on just these three vendors using the member savings program.

Later that day 2nd post : "re-reading your post, I saw that you DID make a recommendation, so I did a little bit of research, and purchased a 15z, customizing it to my preferences. ($600 after tax: Saved me $870) !! Thanks, Mark! "
