It’s coming down to the final deadline. I’m running out of time and need to decide ….

Kids are at college so buying in bulk is less important but I love Costco. My membership expired in May, but I’m down to three rolls of toilet paper, LoL

Do I renew Costco and continue to buy in bulk at the potential of wasting money, or do I give up on Costco and buy all supplies from the grocery?

    My $0.02 worth: It’s a toss up and depends on how much you buy and what other retailers are charging (shocking I know!)

    My best reason to go there is for the pharmacy (several meds that insurance doesn’t cover [still prescription, just not “on my plan”]) are cheaper than the competition in my area. I would say food and electronics are generally a good price there consistently vs having to wait for a sale at another retailer.

    Fuel for me isn’t normally cheaper there than other places I go. YMMV.

      I’m golden for that part. While my costco doesn’t have fuel, now I drive an EV and there’s free charging at work
