[quote=Anonymous]What you SHOULDN'T do is wander through the store picking up things that "look like a good bargain" even though you're not sure you'll use them. That's a good way to waste several hundred dollars and have boxes of stuff taking up precious storage room in your house. My #1 rule at Costco is no impulse shopping. Only buy things that you know your family will use. For example, I'm always tempted by the heat and eat family-size meals ... but my family just doesn't cook those kinds of meals. So they go to waste. Instead of looking at what other people buy, think about what things you use a lot of. I buy their pure maple syrup because I use it in cooking and my kids love having waffles on the weekend. Cinnamon sticks are also a good bargain and I have several favorite recipes that call for them. I stock up on winter gloves every year. AA and AAA batteries. Strawberries.[/quote]
