Favorite things from Costco

We love the double carts at Costo, although we still need two now that G is sitting up.

It's pretty obvious we love Costco.  I have started to do my shopping monthly and our first trip is always to Costco (followed by Aldi).  They have great prices and we love the food samples....it helps keep the kids from squirming too much!  At first we weren't sure if the membership was worth the money, since you can't use coupons there, but we have learned it saves us so much money!  Now that we have been members for a year, we have tried out so many great products.  We have way more than five favorites, but I narrowed it down to must-haves (kind of...).  You know I love to ramble, especially when it comes to talking about shopping.

Here's my Top 5:

1. Bread/Carbs.  We love the organic wheat 2-packs.  For $3.99, it freezes well and is perfect for everyday sandwiches.  We also love the pita pockets, pizza crust, English muffins, sandwich thins and Flatout wraps.  Let's face it, we will never be on a carb-free diet!
2. Produce.  If you have little ones who eat like I do, the produce is amazing.  We buy the big bags of broccoli, berries, whole pineapples and sweet potatoes.  We freeze a lot, too.  If you search on Pinterest, you can find out how to freeze anything!
3. Ground Turkey.  It's our favorite lean ground type and it is only $2.99 lb.  We don't eat much beef, so we stock up when we go.
4. Alcohol.  If you are a wine drinker, be sure to shop at Costco.  The prices are great!  Also, big bottles of alcohol are at amazing prices.  We stocked up for the wedding and saved major money.
5. Kid Snacks.  Although I don't usually like to buy snack bags, they are actually cheaper by ounce this way at Costco.  Our favorites are Annie's bunnies and Veggie Straws.  Perfect for on-the-go or picnics.

Honorable mentions: Baby wipes, chicken stock, pesto and Prego sauce.
