[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The key is to buy the right quantities there and have a shopping list - don’t deviate from it. Costco is still better than all named stores for the long lasting items: juices, organic frozen fish, coffee, olive oil, toilet paper, laundry detergent etc. The packages of pistachio are huge relative TJ I buy only organic and organic at Costco is same quality as WF and still cheaper [/quote] Same. We use Costco for nonperishables or perishables that we use frequently. Still better than a grocery store for these items esp as we have kids - so smart pop snack bags or crackers for lunches, excellent extra virgin olive oil (I am picky about my olive oils!) ketchup, maple syrup, pasta, paper towels, large packs of strawberries, blueberries (we go through so much fruit we use them!), flavored seltzers, multipacks of chicken breasts), multipacks of bread (we freeze the extra till ready for use), etc. They sell large parmesan cheese wedges that are far tastier than pre-shredded stuff and last a long time - we shred as needed. Also occasional kid clothes - like a multipack of Nike shorts or joggers for my son, cheaper than online. Costco still beats the grocery store for many items. [/quote]
