I haven't ventured over to check yet - but we need some bulk shopping up in here, so I can report. I love Costco, done smartly :) Fun to read your favorites, even if it did make me yearn a little bit for our old home!

One meal with a little bit of leftovers. My oldest boy can eat an entire one of those steaks in one sitting - no lie. Just wait. And I stopped buying shredded cheese awhile ago, after my sister pointed out how long it stays "fresh" in the fridge, and how it NEVER sticks together like actual cheese. Makes you think. Into my cart as a "must have always" item, I will add bacon. The Kirkland brand microwave bacon packs are a LIFESAVER in the morning. All my people can micro to their heart's content and everyone is nice and stocked up on protein for breakfast. I limit to 4 pieces per person and it's the best. And the Kirkland brand "actual" bacon (as my kids call the raw), for Saturday morning "special" breakfast.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02999838147173390906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-993283312772421642014-09-04T10:01:24.878-06:002014-09-04T10:01:24.878-06:00Thanks for the heads up!

Confession: I'm Canadian, so I'm not sure that ours carries the same products, similar prices, etc. I find better prices at Costco for milk, yogurt and some school supplies (still working through the 80 pack of pencils I bought 6-ish years ago!)...also snowsuits...in July, when they are fully stocked (I despise buying winter clothes in summer...the cross I bear...!). <br />Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03097572935671785197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-58857698815556624242014-09-03T21:26:58.017-06:002014-09-03T21:26:58.017-06:00Agreed!

I've always debated if it is worth it the membership stores... plus I'm kinda creeped out by having to buy a membership with a pic to shop at a store... but after reading your post my mouth is watering and I'm super tempted :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650778509779959972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1669762298855511295.post-91054020035239177322014-09-03T18:07:56.657-06:002014-09-03T18:07:56.657-06:00"The uncheesed masses" you almost made m..."The uncheesed masses" you almost made me snort pellegrino out my nose.

(We used to belong to BJ's when the kids were little but when we moved here and no longer needed diapers, wipes and formula, we decided not to join Costco.) But a bunch of my friends are always raving about it so I decided to join the club. HA! Get it?!<br /><br />Anyway, I've tried to start a list so that I can compare prices per unit with my other stores to make sure I'm only buying things at Costco that are truly a good value. So far I've found some good deals and quite often I've compared and found that bigger isn't always cheaper.<br /><br />I like your idea with the steaks! I'll have to check them out next time I go.Beth Cotellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14536268080265726705noreply@blogger.com
