It's Wal-Mart with member cards and bigger carts, and free food samples. If you want five gallons of mayonnaise you've come to the right place.

If you join and plan on shopping there regularly, get the executive membership. The yearly rebate covers our membership fee.
They are very easygoing on returns. |

Costco portions are often too big for me, it's better if you have a family.
They are now starting to build the stores with car washes as well as the gas stations. I've been washing my Jeep there often lately. $8 and it does a pretty good job.

Plan on spending a shitload.
We love it, but you gotta know their prices. Their return policy is amazing - I just returned a suitcase from 3 years ago (zipper broke) - not only did they refund my purchase price and tax, they refunded the shipping cost because I ordered online. |

Say goodbye to your wallet. They are NOT a WalMart. (Sam's being the one owned by the Walton's, anyway)
They have mostly very high quality food and goods. Good deals on jewelery, watches, technology, etc Right now they have a Linksys AC 5400 router for 250. Basically 100 less than anywhere. I have bought both my Kamado Joe's there. I know they are lefties, but what I buy there pisses off liberals and aids me in my life as a productive conservative. |

Figure each item costs an average of $25. Four items and you're already at $100. It never fails
 . The polish dogs from the food court are the bomb.
It's the one place I go where I instantly want to start yelling at all the dumbass inconsiderate motherfuckers blocking the isles, walking slow as fuck and generally being brainless. It probably raises my blood pressure more than driving down to Seattle |

Costco portions are often too big for me, it's better if you have a family. Watch the expiration dates, they can vary significantly. The $5 roasted whole chicken are amazing, but even that gets tiresome after a few, how many can you eat in a month? The small white sticker on the plastic container tells you the time it came out of the roaster. Seasonal products come and go pretty quickly. What's on the shelves changes a lot. Depending on your state laws you may be able to buy beer and wine without a membership. The Kirkland Golf Balls have an excellent reputation, but are hard to find anymore: https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-most-coveted-ball-in-golf-is-from-costco-1484832756 https://www.wsj.com/articles/costco-sues-titleist-in-battle-over-golf-balls-1490032558 Their membership fees are set to increase on June 1st: https://www.wsj.com/articles/costco-to-raise-membership-fees-higher-costs-take-toll-on-profit-1488492253 Their toilet paper is at the perfect balance between strength and softness 
You have to show your receipt to an employee at the exit who then checks your cart matches up with the receipt. |

If you price shop you will notice that some products are cheaper elsewhere.
Their meat department is hard to beat. If you see that they have something you want, buy it. Some products are a one time deal or seasonal. Additional $1,000 rebate on Ford products. Good prices on tires. |

Buy a foodsaver vac sealer.
Then you can buy stuff in bulk and even if you don't use it all right away, you can vac seal and freeze it for later. |

Unbeatable return policy. If I see something I want I buy it. If I like it I keep it, if not it goes back. I've also returned stuff that I used and broke, no questions asked.
The vodka in the big red bottle is excellent and cheap. Hmm, I'm going to have some tonight. |

We had a power washer from Costco that just crapped out after a year of light use. We called Costco out of frustration, not really expecting them to do anything about it, but they said to bring it in for a full refund which we just used to buy another from them. |

The halibit you have to fillet yourself is a steal.
$10.99/lb. Say hello to real lunchmeat also and not that fake crap. Buy a ham and turkey breast and cut it up into lunchmeat sizes. I buy all my meat, seafood, most veggies and non perishables there. Certain things are too big to be a good value but ziplock bags and your freezer can help with some of that. |

I have a Costco membership, but as a single guy I pretty much just break even on the membership cost per year.
I really don't need to buy toilet paper and other stuff by the pallet. I like their meat selection, some of the liquor/wine, and dog food - I really don't buy much else there. |

Meats are quality and very well priced. Spices, Kirkland alcohol (if you have it,) and various finds are well worth it. Like everything else, a smart consumer can save lots of money.
