Budget Grocery Haul, Costco Trip
This grocery haul is a little different. It’s one of our shopping trips to Costco. I have certain items I purchase at Costco because they are a good deal.
I also have other items I purchase there so I don’t have to think about them for quite some time.
Toilet paper is one of the items I like to purchase at Costco so I don’t have to remember to get it elsewhere. I’ve found the price at Costco to be comparable to the price at the grocery store with a coupon. So I stock up when I go to Costco so I don’t have to think about it for a while.
We also buy the gummy vitamins at Costco. The price is better than other stores and they are dairy free, which is a must for my kids.
Peanut butter is another good buy from Costco. It works out to be right around $.10 an ounce which is better than the grocery store prices.
Although I do keep my eye out for good sales when I shop. Occasionally I will find peanut butter at 9 cents an ounce and when I do I’ll buy what I can.
Here’s everything I purchased this shopping trip. I usually will shop Costco once every 6 weeks or so. This was a big shopping trip for us.
I usually spent right around $100 when I shop but with the stamps, it really pushed us over.
