Storing in peat or...?

Has anyone ever used wood shavings to store their bulbs in for the winter?

I was in the pet store today and I noticed that the price of wood shavings for hamsters and the like would be about 1/5 the price of peat. Being the cheapie that I am, it is tempting to use them instead - but before I go and do it, can anyone think of any reason why this might not be a good idea? Several times I have bought bulbs that came in bags with wood shavings instead of peat, and they seemed fine.
