Default Re: What do you buy at Costco

I buy many things you buy.

Organic spinach (used to be $3.69 a lb, now it's $3.99 - still a great deal)
Kalamata olives
Coconut oil (WAY cheaper than anywhere else)
Plainville deli turkey (the container is now pre-portions into 2-3 servings so you don't have to freeze in portions, ingredients are turkey water sea salt - that's it)
Avocados (unless they're cheaper at Aldi)
Various cheeses and yogurts that are on sale
Sardines (wild caught, skinless boneless)
Huge pack of yeast for less than $5

The main thing I recommend is really looking thoroughly at the sale flyer, especially for shelf-stable stuff. Sometimes the deals are REALLY good. The 6-pack of super high quality sardines are usually $9.99. They go on sale twice a year for $6.99, and I stock up. I got a 32 oz container of full fat greek yogurt recently for 99 cents!

They do have a great return policy. Aldi is better. But at Costco, you don't need a receipt or even the item if it's produce. I've brought in half-rotted bags of avocados that didn't ripen and gotten all my money back.
