:: Detroit Moms Blog LOVES Costco ::
There is just something about Costco that gets me over the top excited every single time we go there! I even get excited at the thought of going to Costco! I’m not sure if it’s the delicious samples, the ridiculous deals or the $1 churro after a productive shopping experience. I had a hard time compiling a list of only 10 things my family absolutely loves. These are things that Costco truly has the best deals on.
- Baked Goods :: Seriously, have you tried their cake?! It has to be the absolute best and at a great price! All of their sweets are de-lish-ous. But it’s not just their sweets that will reel you in – their croissants are so soft and fluffy. They make the best breakfast sandwiches.
- Meat (including organic) :: You can buy bulk meat and then freeze it for later. Economically it’s the best way to go. If it’s to much meat for you – share with a friend. It’s a great way to always have something on hand to grab out of the freezer and throw a healthy meal together.
- Coconut Oil :: Enough said! If you’re anything like my family we use coconut oil for everything. I’ve pinterested every possible use. Hands down Costco has the best price on the larger tubs of quality coconut oil.
- Laundry Detergent + Fabric Softener :: Kirkland’s top rated laundry detergent will give you the best bang for your buck. Bonus – it smells amazing!
- Paper Products : I think it goes without saying that having toilet paper and paper towel in bulk is a necessity. Save money by buying these products in bulk and rest assure you won’t have to wipe with anything other than toilet paper.
- Rotisserie Chicken :: Yum! My husband loves their rotisserie chicken. We’ve bought them from competitors and they are tiny and overly priced. At Costco you’ll get a nice plump 3lb delicious chicken that will last a couple days and can be used in multiple meals or eaten alone.
- Gift Card Selection :: The selection of gift cards Costco has is insane! You can find whatever you’re looking for. I hate having to run to multiple stores to get the gift cards I’m looking for. Don’t you?!
- Gas :: I don’t know about you but I love the fact that I can get my groceries and gas all in one spot. A one stop shop! The prices alone justify purchasing the membership.
- Organic Produce :: Best strawberries ALL year long! We can always count on Costco and their selection of organic produce – berries, pears, apples – you name it, they have it.
- Diapers + Wipes :: These diapers rock our world! Goodbye blowouts and leaks – finally a diaper that makes it through the night and saves on extra loads of laundry. For $29.99 you can get 192 diapers and they last. They are soft and don’t irritate our little mans skin. If you’ve ever thought about trying them – do it – you have nothing to lose!
