We just got a new Costco this week here in Central Alabama.

I went there with my family today and brought my notebook. I wasn't the only one walking around writting down prices. Y'all be so proud of me as I did not get a membership and won't until I price compare Sams, Costco, and my local commissary.

Has anyone already price shopped the 2 warehouse clubs against each other for staple/pantry items? What did you decide?

And those with limited storage space WTH did you do with the large items?

The one thing that really surprised me was this HUGE can of tomato sauce. 105 oz. for $1.85! I guess you can freeze sauce with no problems.

Sams membership fee is now $40 and Costco is $50.

I am proud you took your notebook and look forward to your report ie. sams vs costco vs commisary.
