We have had our Costco membership for exactly one year and let me tell you – it has been lovingly used. I think they pump the same type of `loose your mind air` that the do in Target! You walk in for a rotisserie chicken and walk out $400 later! I do find that using their two hour delivery is actually more cost effective since you cant browse the aisles (a.k.a get lost), so we have been relying on that the last few months. I know it’s time for another Costco trip when we run out of the Kirkland paper towels and toilet paper – those last at least two months!! Here are some of my favorite Costco purchases!
Rotisserie Chicken – the cost of the chicken is probably the cheapest item in the whole store but it is so good! You just HAVE to get it!
Egg Bites (Sous Vide) – I am convinced that Starbucks buys these in bulk and sells them as their egg bites! The are my favorite for a quick and easy breakfast.
Thats It Mini Fruit Bars – when they say that’s it, the didn’t lie! Three different flavors: apple & strawberry, apple & mango, apple & blueberry – so tasty and a great snack to throw in your purse or pack for the kids.
Almond Butter – Gary and Sophia love this! I am not a huge peanut or almond butter person, but I know that Gary always requests to repurchase.
Greenridge Beef Snack Sticks – My dad introduced me to these and the will always be a repurchase for me. So good!
Vegetable Spring Rolls – This is a great value for 50 spring rolls and it comes with individually wrapped sauce packets. I pop them into the air fryer for 10 minutes and the are perfectly crispy!
Frozen Turkey Burgers – It’s almost grilling season here, but I like to make these when I need something a little different for lunch. Love the Columbus brand and they are very lean.
Milk Chocolate Covered Almonds – When I am craving something sweet, this is my go to! There is a really good chocolate to almond ratio which I appreciate and depending on how much of sweet tooth you have, these can last a long time. Also great if you like to add some chocolate to a charcuterie board while you’re entertaining.
Riced Cauliflower – You cannot trick me into thinking that cauliflower is the same as rice, but what I do appreciate is that the are individually wrapped portions with the sauce on the side. Great for when you’re craving stir fried rice, but want less calories and carbs.
Honest Kids Organic Juice – Sophia loves these juices and I love how many different flavors come in the pack. Also these have no sugar added and are perfect to keep on hand.
Kirkland Apple Sauce – I swear by these apple sauces! We never leave the house without at least one in my purse and I am fairly confident Sophia has at least one apple sauce a day. Great bang for our buck compared to the go-go squeeze ones.
Whey Protein – Gary used to order his protein on Amazon, but when he saw that Costco had a larger pack for a cheaper price he started to get it there. They have different flavors, but he prefers the chocolate peanut butter one.
Of course Kirkland diapers and wipes & pull-ups are very high up on our list – a really great value. I do love perusing the aisles for some of the seasonal items, like they have a great splash pad on sale right now for under $30!
What are some of your must have Costco purchases.
We just made a Costco run this weekend! Love the Z bars and That’s it for kids. I’m obsessed with Thor individual grilled chicken cups for tossing on my salads each day!
I’ve always wanted to check out a Costco! We don’t have one here. Womp womp.
Our Sam’s membership just expired and I keep telling Mr. Nine, I need a Costco. Lol. Great stuff.
I love the That’s It bars. I buy them on the regular. Costco is about 45 minutes away from me, so I don’t have a membership. I used to when I lived in Atlanta and loved it. I do miss it, as I prefer it over Sam’s Club. But Sam’s is only 10 minutes away, so they win.
Haha, we know we must go when we run out of paper towels and toilet paper! My boyfriend is most excited about our new house because they’re building a Costco near us, lol. It’s the little things 😊
I legit need a new freezer to hold all the food I can get at Wholesale Clubs
We just got word that we MIGHT be getting a Costco on our island and I am hoping we do! I miss buying in bulk!
We love the apple sauce and get boxes of it at a time. I love that it has nothing but apples in it. I love the chocolate covered almonds too, but i always get the dark chocolate ones.
