Let's all Congratulate...
ME!

for having just joined Costco this morning. i will go down on record as saying - that is one of the scariest places i have ever been.

i went in there b/c i ran out of eggs and meat and decided that i would be better off shopping for my food in bulk since it's so close to me anyway. and as i found out... the prices for groceries there ARE for sure cheaper.

but it is scary because the first 3 aisles of that place are packed full of candy, cookies, and junk food IN BULK. i don't know how many times i put that tub of twizzlers in my cart to only push it back to the original spot to put it down. or that big ass bag of nantucket cookies that i would be inhaling right now if i didn't get rid of it at the last minute.

now - i am the proud owner of 2 60oz containers of ketchup, canned chicken, and a lot of other stuff - that i didn't go in there for.

kthxbye,
me.

well, what am i supposed to do when they put all the produce and meats in the BACK like a mile away and all the cookies and candy right in front. i pushed my cart through every single candy aisle before i kicked myself in the ass to the back to get my groceries.

that tub of twizzlers made a total of 5 trips into and out of my cart. that big bag of nantucket cookies - 3.

BUT - i didn't leave with them that's the important thing... isn't it??

And just think, you got to work your biceps at the same time!

I go to Sam's Club here...4 lb bags of chicken tenders are cheaper than the 3 lb bags at the supermarket. Milk is also 50 cents a gallon cheaper there, so I buy 10 gallons at a time and stick them into the chest freezer. (Skim milk doesn't spoil as quickly once it's been frozen.) Bottled water by the case is also a lot cheaper there. Gotta love bundles of big cans of chicken. Their steaks and roasts are nice and again, a good deal.

Have fun in your new playground, Sana! And remember, no candy and cookies or else...

I love Costco, that place is the bomb for getting bulk foodstuffs... and alot of other stuff for cheap as well. Unfortunately, after moving to NC, the closest one to me is in Charlotte... an hour and a half away from me. When I was in Cali I shopped in the one that was 10 min. away.

Yeah, Costco is a good place to shop... We also have BJ's, which is the same thing, bulk items.. I'm not sure who's cheaper, then again with the amounts you get anyway, it doesn't matter..

Congratulations.

You made it through unscathed, a little challenged, yet unscathed.
In the end you made all the right moves, and that is what counts.

It'll be easier the next time.

I love Costco....I got a sheet cake there that could feed like 100 people for $12. I didn't really need a giant cake and it took me the better part of a day to eat it all but it was goooooooood.

Oh by the way I'm blaming Costco for making me a fat slob. I think I'll sue.

Sana-been shopping there for about 5 years now.

Couple of things to check out-flank steak, great price, very lean and tough to find in the supermarkets all the time. The chicken breasts are the best going. Compare them to supermarket ones and you'll find a lot less fat on Costco ones, less trimming, etc.

Buy the gallon jug of Bertolli extra virgin olive oil, won't go bad and is a great price-I use it to make my salads and stuff.

They might also have from time to time the seafood kiosk-the shrimp and Alaskan king crab legs are a very good value.

The canned Phillips backfin crab meat is a little pricey but worth it-makes a great crabmeat salad.

And the Bumblebee tuna water packed six cans- is a really good price too.

Don't you all laugh at me. I've been food shopping and cooking for the last twenty years for the family. You get to know this stuff.

Buy the Dentyne Ice Artic Chill gum- it really helps take the edge off.

And make sure you eat BEFORE you go shopping.



Good Luck.
