I'm considering a Costco membership but not sure I'll use it enough. I have a warehouse very close to me and took a walk around yesterday but wasn't enamored.
That may just be me. Here's a few things holding me back:
I already save 20% on Gas as I stock up on Publix $40 for $50 gas cards for Mobil. (Though costco would make this simpler if their gas is that much cheaper?)
I BOGO thinks like pet supplies, non-perishables etc.
I have a Fresh Market 2 miles from my house which I LOVE for fresh produce, wonderful meats, discounted wines on weekends, etc. - and it's an awesome little new shopping center I am in and out. (but costco did have some very good wine prices)
I'm very picky. I will not buy 2lbs of French Roast for the same price as 1lb of Espresso Roast because I want Espresso Roast. I won't buy 6 tubes of toothpaste if it isn't the exact Crest sensitive whitening one I like.
We mostly do the lower carb thing, so no cereal, rice, candies, chips, frozen dinners - certainly never big huge backs or cartons.
That said, I'm sure I'm missing something. I did see cheap huge things like Aleve, and Ricola cough drops, Splenda, and maybe their TV prices look good (we want to get a 4k TV sooner or later).
Inputs welcome!
