[quote=Anonymous]If you only want to go to one store for your weekly grocery shopping it shouldn't be Costco. Costco is great for some things, but overall their prices are not stellar across the board. Meal planning around cheaper items should be the easiest cost saver for you. For instance a large container of oats is a few bucks. I make various baked oatmeals for most breakfasts through the fall and winter. They are warm, filling and leftovers freeze beautifully. If I'm making a pumpkin version I'll make sure to have another way to use the rest of the pumpkin from the can (like in a butternut squash soup). Costco rotisserie chickens are great. Croissants are a good value as well. You'll occasionally find items here and there that are a decent savings, but honestly rarely will you find their food prices so amazingly better than your local grocery store. You may save a few bucks, but your membership fee and gas to get there may not work out in your favor.[/quote]
