How to use bulk in a sentence?

  1. Hannah Baxter:

    Although I'm a certified beauty fanatic, it pains me to witness all of the wasted packaging that isn't recyclable wind up in landfills, i think a lot of people would be surprised to learn that bottle pumps, which are so ubiquitous, can't be recycled since many of the metal components are too small. That's why I'm a big fan of companies that offer refillable containers and that sell bulk refills so I can keep my original bottle and pump for years.

  2. Sir John Sawers:

    I think the great bulk of these refugees are people genuinely fleeing conflict, fleeing for their lives and seeking a better life for themselves and their families.

  3. Rod Hilton:

    I think to a lot of fans, Star Wars is Luke Skywalker story. Unfortunately, the prequels kind of refocused the entire saga on Anakin Skywalker and made it Luke Skywalker story -- which doesn't work as well because Anakin Skywalker's not a sympathetic or engaging character, machete Order includes the bulk of the prequel material... but Luke's position as the narrative center is restored.

  4. Thomas Jefferson:

    The bulk of mankind are schoolboys through life.

  5. Leon Lerman:

    From what our researchers have seen, there is an elaborate marketplace on the Dark Web where the stolen data is distributed through channels to end users, the hackers, who at the top of the black market value chain, sell raw patient data in bulk.
