[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't been back since diaper years.  I'm game but I understand the parking situation at Pentagon is tough.  Anyone have any tips for how to beat it?[/quote]

Go during the mornings on weekdays or park in the garage on weekends and walk. Avoid it after work on Fridays, and mid-day Saturday and Sunday.

Costco has saved us money for sure, we're a family of 2 with the Executive membership (rebate covers membership costs.) I also share my membership with my out-of-state parents and never had any issues with customer service.

The savings for us come from buying their organic items and booze. Trekking to DC to get spirits is annoying though, but their Kirkland Vodka is made at the same distillery as Grey Goose at a fraction of the cost. Their coffee (whole beans in the silvery blue bags) is fantastic. We had a taste test comparison to Starbucks and it was a Costco win hands down.

We also occasionally buy bigger ticket appliances (Vitamix, Kitchenaid mixer, dehydrator, etc.) from there. Shop smart and know your prices, it's easy to come out ahead there.[/quote]
