post Category: Reviews, Saving Money post postJanuary 29, 2008

This past weekend my husband and I became Costco members. After our first Costco shopping experience we knew that we made the right decision to buy a membership.

Costco is known for its bulk savings and if you want to save big you really do need to go for the bulk. For example if you buy Costco’s case of namebrand canned vegetables you will end up being the same price as if you bought the same amount of Best Value ”walmart brand” canned vegetables. However if you buy the large 6 lb can you will save a lot of money. Of course if you don’t have 20 kids you will need storage to save the leftovers. We bought Ziploc bags to freeze the leftovers.

Other big money savers we noticed were their big bags of rice and oatmeal. The fresh produce is also by far cheaper than what you will get at a typical grocery store.

To top off our great experience we were also fed well on Costco’s many food sample offers that we didn’t even need to eat lunch!
