[quote=Anonymous]We have a separate chest freezer and extra refrigerator, which makes a lot of this possible.  Our staples are:

TP/Paper Towels
Eggs
Ground beef/turkey
chicken breasts/thighs
Steaks (we get whole striploins/tenderloins, and break them down at home)
toothpaste
razors
tortilla chips (Kirkland brand are great)
Kerrygold butter
deodorant
gas
roast chickens (This is a loss leader for Costco).  
Vitamins
alcohol (in addition to having alcohol, the DC Costco is head and shoulders abowe the others in the region)
detergent
Some prepared foods - chicken tikka, chicken teryaki meatballs.

In addition, there's added benefit in the one-off items.  WE got a great deal on folding tables and chairs, for example, because we were members, but you obviously don't need them more than once.

If you wear glasses and/or contacts, the membership pays for itself several times over the first time you use it.

Finally, the PP who said that you just need to exercise a basic level of adult discipline.  Yes, there are opportunities for impulse purchases.  No, you do not need superhuman poers to avoid them.  Come on, people.
