What exactly is costco or Sam's club good for in terms of being frugal?
Im going over my subscriptions and realized I haven't used my costco membership in 2 years. It was $60 annually but I went today and double checked the prices compared to my local go-to grocery stores and the price difference isnt that much... Costco just offers slightly more product for a dollar or two less than local groceries. Not only that, but the store is designed to make you want to purchase more things (a sushi platter, big bags of chips, bigger quantities of everything, etc and pizzas or hotdogs on the way out) with certain limited time items they rotate throughout the year and some of those perishable goods of too much can easily spoil in less than a week. Not to mention having to deal with the constant black friday like crowds.
Am I missing something here? Did you guys also cancel your subscriptions and for what reasons?
