[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have a Costco membership, but have started to buy Costco and Sam's Club items from Boxed.com. It is interesting how little food I seem to get from a $200 order, though I am buying expensive items like nuts, maple syrup and olive oil. I am surviving by cutting out snacks, restaurants, and items that seem to be subject to price gouging. And making even more of my food from scratch. It is all a bit annoying.[/quote] Probably because a lot of your money is going to the boxed.com middleman.[/quote] Some of the prices are exactly the same (I checked at Costco.com). Others are maybe $2 more. But still better than the grocery stores for some items. I do look up prices at Giant, etc. when comparing unit costs. Fortunately, grocery store prices can easily be checked online. I used to just buy all my groceries at the closest grocery store, but those days feel long gone.[/quote]
