Buy: Uncooked Cookies
Not many people know this, but at Costco, you can buy cookies and other uncooked pastries for much less money. Go to the bakery counter and ask them for a box – they’ll gladly give it to you. Doing this will save you a whole lot of money. A box of 21 cookies normally costs $7.99, but if you get a box of uncooked cookies, you can get as many as 120 for $22.99!
Worst: Rice
Many shopping experts have said that Costco is not the best place to buy rice, especially Jasmine. When one frequent Costco shopper did some research, she realized that the rice sold at her Costco was as much as 35% more expensive. This was compared to the same product sold at a local Asian market. There were some cases in which the same amount of rice was $40 at Costco while it was just $14 at a small shop.
