Jib 0 #26 February 12, 2007 I love Costco and make a weekly trip. You can buy a whole chicken and use it over a couple of days -- no freezer burn! Or eat cheap at their counter -- dipped while you wait chocolate almond ice cream bars!! The quality is good and they take anything back without any questions. A friend on mine said their business plan is cost + 15%. Not sure if I believe it, but there are some good deals. Note: each store has somewhat different stuff. Sams... never really liked it. -------------------------------------------------- the depth of his depravity sickens me. -- Jerry Falwell, People v.

doug925 0 #28 February 12, 2007 I shop @ Costco for lots of meat purchases. I will buy a beef, or pork tenderloins, steaks etc. cut and individually pack. As to weather it save me a bunch of money, hell I don't know. Maybe... But I end up buying so much more then I meant to.I have never developed indigestion from eating my words.

skygirlpc 0 #29 February 12, 2007 We don't have costco locally so I don't know anything about it. But my sister and I are roommates and we have a membership to Sam's. We use it pretty regularly. But, not everything there is a bargain! We love things like the package of frozen chicken breasts, we eat a lot of chicken and that works perfectly for us! We also get our tires from Sam's, they have a great warrenty and any time that we have had trouble with tires we are able to go in and get either a patch or replace the tire. So, yeah... we have found things at Sam's that make it worth the trip! "Life is either a great adventure or nothing." - Helen Keller Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
base428 1 #30 February 12, 2007 Another Reason Why Sam's Club Blows Sam's Club deals are NOT that good. Most people can't do the math to figure out if they're getting a bargain.

micduran 0 #32 February 12, 2007 I have Costco, SO has Sam's. They both have good and bad points. Different brands of TP, paper towels, etc. Costco has a great meat department. FoodSavers ROCK! And if you time it right, you can fill up on all the samples in the food section. Be patient with the faults of others; they have to be patient with yours.
