I love my Costco store! I don’t shop there for everything, but I thought it would be fun to discuss what some of our Costco staples are. Please leave a comment and let us know what some of your favorite Costco items are. Here are the items I pick up at Costco on a regular basis (or on a yearly basis in some cases)
Stretch Island Fruit Leather (48 ct) $10.59 – The price on these can’t be beat!! These work out to $ .22 a piece. These are a staple at our house. Our youngest has had sensory issues since birth and he still cannot eat real fruit without freaking out. This is the best way we know to make sure he gets some fruit in his diet.
Clif Kid Z Bars (24 ct) $10.79 – Not cheap, but they are so good. I even love these!
Butter (4/1 lb) $7.79 – If there isn’t a sale at other stores I will usually always pick up butter and eggs from Costco
Eggs Extra Large (24 ct) $3.49
Pretzel Slider Buns (16 ct) $5.99 – Oh my goodness – have you tried these? Don’t! You won’t be able to stop buying them. These are so good, I put some butter and a little salt on mine. YUM! My plan is to try to make my own someday, but for now every time I head to Costco one of these bags ends up in my cart.
Whole Chicken (5 lb) $4.99 – When I stop at Costco that usually means we are having chicken for dinner. You can’t go wrong with a cooked 5 lb chicken for $4.99, that’s what it costs to buy one when they go on sale (and I didn’t have to cook it – BONUS!)
Tortilla Land Uncooked Tortillas (44 ct) $6.99 – This is another item that has become a staple at our house. Once you try these you won’t want to go back to the other tortillas. At first, I thought it would be annoying to have to cook them up, but it really doesn’t take much time at all.
Homai California Calrose Rice (25 lb) $11.99 – We love this kind of rice much better than the long white rice. We pick up a bag every once an awhile to add to our food storage.
Almonds $12.79 – Both of these nuts are regular snacks at our house and I have found Costco to be the cheapest place to buy them.
Pistachios $14.99
Red Star Yeast (32 oz) $3.99 – It is more cost effective to buy this big huge bag of yeast over those little packets. We do a lot of bread baking, so this really comes in handy.
Soy Sauce (64 oz) $4.99 – Lots of the marinades we make call for soy sauce and it just makes sense to buy a big jug of it.
Vanilla Extract (16 oz) $6.89 – I always buy my vanilla extract at Costco, it’s much cheaper than buying it at the grocery store. I kind of have a craving for chocolate chip cookies now.
Taco Seasoning (24 oz) $3.99 – This is much cheaper than buying the individual packets. I hope to eventually make my own, but for now I keep picking it up at Costco.
Worcestershire Sauce (2/20 oz) $6.89 – This is another items that we use a lot in marinades.
These are just a few of the items I pick up at Costco on a regular basis. I often get my Strawberries, Pineapple and Lettuce at Costco. I also get my bread flour at Costco too.
Let’s hear about the items that you pick up at Costco on a regular basis, maybe I can add something new to my shopping list.
