Yes, the bulk item membership store we have all grown to love. No matter how much we realize that we don't really need to purchase items in such HUGE quantities, we always go back. The thought of just going to the store and getting these great deals on these items makes it hard not to go back. But every time the trip is made, that reminder of it's impact on our pocketbook shows up at checkout. ka-ching!
"But I only needed to get some bread." If only it were that easy.
The electronics area of Costco is very nice, even if the selection is limited. No bulk items to worry about, the pricing is right and warranties on larger items is very good. Wine is another great 'smaller' item that can be picked up. These items and the 'you can only purchase these items during this window of time' coupons keep us going back. Oh! Not to mention the numerous samples of food that always seem to taste better coming from the electric pot/toaster oven/microwave than they do when you take them home. So sneaky.
A new store just opened up down the road from my house, and soon, yet again, I will be off spending another $200.
