Hi I was wondering where online I could buy Catholic items in bulk and perhaps get a deal on them. The items I was thinking about are bibles, catechisms, scapulars, and rosaries. Other items would come in handy too, but most specifically the above mentioned things.

My friends and I are wanting to help the less fortunate who cannot access these items because of financial difficulties, and for that reason we will hand brown paper bags and put the basic thins a Catholic should have.

God Bless
 
Contact a Catholic bookstore in your area and ask about bulk pricing, also call your diocese and ask. In our diocese the office of Catechesis and Evangelization regularly does bulk purchases of items and offer them to us in the parishes at the bulk price. For books, you have to buy 500 to qualify for a bulk purchase-- our diocese usually gets them for $2 each in a bulk purchase.

Autom.com has a lot of inexpensive rosaries and bulk bags of catholic items like medals and such. These are smaller bulk purchases-- like 24, 36, 50, 100-- rather than true bulk like a wholesaler would want to sell you. You could call them about bulk purchases of bibles if your diocese does not buy in bulk. The people at Autom are very nice and helpful. I buy stuff for CCD classes from them all the time.
 
What a wonderful idea, I hope you will find the items you need at a reasonable price. If you have a Catholic school nearby, in addition to the other ideas you have been given, they have bulk buying opportunities through the school catalogs. There might also be an opportunity to work with some of the groups active in the school to assist you in this ministry.
 
There is company called Autumn that sells all kinds of Catholic stuff. They do sell in bulk.
 
Thanks for all your replies I am checking them out as of right now.

I hope I will find the things I need

God Bless
