    EXTRA LONG COMMENT: Jennifer Costco clothing is very good quality. They last & wash nicely. We shop Costco once a month. They are 35 minutes from our home. Our Costco has Supper nice & helpful employees. Ours is very clean. We raise our own beef & pork. We don’t buy meat other than the rotisserie chickens at $5.00 you can’t beat the cost. So I buy 2 for a family of five(4 adults & one teenager) I get 5-6 meals & I make & can chicken broth out of both these chickens. No store sells a whole raw chicken for $5.00. (They are huge comparable to stewing hens) As far as the size of rice. Most American families eat rice at least 3 times a week. (We don’t) Also their produce is very good quality. It last much longer than Aldi . If you can find the time read up on the brands they sell are very good quality it is much cheaper there. Even though the products are supper sized you will spend less in the long run by NOT buying smaller size quantities. Check prices per ounce. I had size & sticker shock like you but once I read up & started comparing it has saved us money $$$ in the long run. GOD BLESS from West Central Indiana Farmland ✝️🇺🇸😊🚜

    That was fun to watch! If you are watching carbs still the next time you go do not get the chocolate covered coconut almonds, oh my goodness they are too delicious. For economy, get three or four rotisserie chickens, split them in half and then put them in Foodsaver bags to freeze. Saw another YT'er do it and it has been a game changer for quick meals. I bet your lamp is beautiful in your home.

    Quick tip. If a member gives you a Costco gift card, you can use the store without a membership. If you go over the amount, I believe you need to pay with cash. So if if you can get your daughter to buy a gift card for you, you can access Costco. Cards are sold at the register

It’s a tight fit when we are done. I do our monthly shopping at woodmans and Costco. Between the toilet paper and water bundles and then at least some other bundle ..lol we also take a cooler because we are about 45 min away….winter it’s fine but summer not so much! I bought the keto mix last time with nuts and it has those cheese balls in it 👎🏻 not a fan…glad the dog eats them..lol would love to hear what your eating for snacks on keto… I’m doing low carb….its so hard when your the only one and others are snacking, and I also love to bake!

    I have been realizing going once a month to Sam's Club and then the rest of the three weeks going to my regular store has saved a lot of money. I saved 200 dollars this month and I don't see the need to buy the cereal, oil, toilet paper, spices, and other pantry items that I buy more than once a month and it truly saved. I only payed 50 dollars at the store last week and 150 this week and normally I spend around 200 a week. I will be going next week and I don't go anywhere else and it's fun too. My son and I will be going together spending time together and we are looking forward to it every month. Thanks for sharing you're experience and special times in your life and have a blessed evening!

    I am a big Costco fan. In fact the majority of my wardrobe comes from there. I have bought outfits for my great grandson there similar to what you purchased. Fortunately we have one close by so it is convenient for us. Their products are high quality and if you aren't satisfied returns are very easy. I buy my cleaning products there as well. Much cheaper than regular grocery stores. We are only two people so we usually spend between $100.00 and $200.00 per month, and then I don't spend much at the grocery store the rest of the month. Aside from the dried cranberries the only time I see fresh, or other cranberry products, is in November and December, which is true in other stores here in Utah. Have you ever been been to Trader Joe's ? Fun and unusual things to buy. BTW I watch you on my iPad and my husband will say that is Jennifer isn't it when he hears your voice. He has fond memories of Wisconsin from his college years at UW Madison. Not the cold winters though!

    On your first trip to Costco (or Sam’s) it is pretty much the same…you buy more than you should. Then you realize that the large sizes of many things don’t always get used. Our trip was definitely like that. But as the years have gone by, I have learned to shop more sensible. Costco is a great place to get your paper products, canned goods, milk and eggs, detergents, frozen food, and even produce. And if you shop organic, their prices can’t be beat. I do like that lamp and may check out our Costco to see if we have it. Costco is also a great place to stop when traveling. We fill up our vehicle, use their restrooms which are almost always super clean and even grab a bite to eat. When we go through Wisconsin on our way to St. Paul, to visit our son and his family, our favorite Costco stop is in Sun Prairie.

    Hi Jennifer... I looked in your description box for the info on my question and didn't see any reference to it... but in your video I'm not sure you specified how far you traveled in total to get from your home to the Costco? If you did, I missed it. So... how many miles/distance did you travel from point A to point B?? I want to know if it's worth the trip??? I would have to travel from northeaster Pennsylvania to some point in New Jersey... over 2 hours (plus). Also... I don't have a paid membership... so how would that work? Can you "pay to play" for a one time trip?? I'm scared to go... because I'm certain that I would probably WAY OVERSPEND... but then again... ?

    I go to Sams once or twice a month bc it's near my Doctor's office. I buy a years worth of various things (rice, sugar, spices, etc) and spread my purchases out over a year. They will cut up pork loins to your specifications and it's cheaper than their own precut packs. I buy rotisserie chickens to cut up and freeze the meat and make broth from the bones. I get the premium membership and use their credit card for 5% cash back there and to get gas and that more than pays for the membership. I pay my cards off weekly. I compare prices between sales elsewhere and Walmart & Sams and stock up on sale prices when it's cheaper.
    The only time I've spent that much on trips was in January & February 2020. My husband is a nurse and saw Covid coming so we went into a little debt to really stock up for what did end up happening. Especially considering inflation. I also bought a big freezer and generator that came in handy when we lost power for a week a few months later. My1 husband said I've made more money for us (bc of inflation) than any of his investments the last 4 years because of how I shop. I was very very poor growing up so I've always shopped carefully and stocked up when I could for bad times.
    We don't buy furniture there. We bought a couch & recliners and they broke within 6 months. I saw them drop a couch from the top shelf then put it back. I rarely buy clothes there because I'm plus size.

    That was fun. I want to go shopping with y'all. We have a Sam's membership so opted not to get both but I hear pros and cons to both places. I love the
    pickup from Sams and the scan and save so you don't have to wait in line to check out. Do you have sams close by also?

    Yeah Costco employees are something else. An older cashier woman flipped out on me because I still had a snack wrapper in the cart as I was checking out, I have a toddler with me and I always throw those out after checking out. That women was probably having a bad day: another time, I always buy food separate from supplies, to pay in cash and to have separate receipts and this cashier guy gave me attitude at the register, telling me that the person I’m buying this for-needs to get a membership 🤨. I’m like “it’s for me, I like to separate food and non food to stick to my budget”. He kept pushing it and basically rolling his eyes. So annoying.

      Yes! I used to be a die hard Costco fan. We've had a membership for 17 years, but when it expires this time, we're done. The last few years the employees have really got on a power trip and aren't friendly anymore. I've had some really weird experiences lately. After spending thousands and thousands of dollars there, I'm sick of being treated like a criminal. We're sticking with Sam's Club.

    "We have to stop. No, we don't" 😂 Maria is too funny. Did you go to the Appleton location? Costco looks fun but I dont think it would be worth it for me.
