Favourite things to buy at Costco?

Question

We are considering buying a Costco membership, but neither my hubby or I have ever been to one, and the closest Costco is over an hour away. Everyone seems to love Costco though!  
What are the best things to buy at Costco? Do you think you save money, or is it more of a bulk convenience? Is it worth the membership price?

Answer

For me it is, even though we aren’t a big family I can save on bulk for things like meat, milk, cheese, tortillas, cereal, snack, juice... also their bakery is very good, muffins and bread are great, lastly their produce is of excellent quality!
Oh, and diapers, wipes, formula, medicine... plus all the clothes, appliances, even decor. Had more to say than I thought lol it really is great!

Answer

Go on a visitors pass, go in and ask them for one they’ll let you check it out before committing.. it’s good for families, I take my friend grocery shopping there and I just use her for her Costco card lmao they have some amazing lobster raviolis 😂

They are not always better priced.  I work for a grocery store that always does buy one get ones so if I know an item goes on sale at my store, I won’t purchase it from Costco.

Answer

-Diapers & wipes (you can't find the huggies they carry anywhere else...its extra-soft) for babies.
-Prescriptions (cheaper)
-frozen foods (bulk size, price is ok)
-salads (cheaper)
-protein shakes (cheaper)
-Roasted chicken (cheaper)
-Bread (cheaper)

What we love is their return policy, their weekly sales, the free samples.

Answer

Everything lol I literally have cardigans for work from Costco... Currently, our big buys are their Kirkland diapers, Kirkland (dawn) dish detergent, and green olives. However, my parents literally buy everything there

Answer

Thank you so much for asking this question. I've been meaning to ask the same thing. I was just talking to my husband about getting one, but I wasn't sure it would be worth it.

Answer

That’s my main grocery store that I shop at. I like their organic eggs, salad kits, meat and amazing salmon! Toilet paper, paper towels... I buy everything there. Even clothes and flowers, they always have deals

Answer

It really is a great place 👍🏻 I mainly have the membership for the cheap gas!

Answer

I don’t think it’s worth driving over an hour unless you really buy a LOT when you go. We buy our paper towels, toilet paper, Kleenex, diapers, wipes, and formula there.  If you buy based on sales at other stores it sometimes works out to the same price (depending on the shopping options where you live of course). Everything at Costco is a big pack so it’s nice sometimes but sometimes is annoying.
