Don’t Miss: Organic Berries

Organic berries come with a host of health benefits, including antioxidant properties and helping to boost your immune system. When they’re in season, consumers typically go a little nuts for them, which naturally drives up an already relatively high price point to begin with. Costco is aware of this, hence why their quantities allow the average consumer to make the most of their purchase. Selling berries at 18 ounces a pop, the per unit price is relatively competitive compared to smaller outlets.

Skip: Various Prepared Foods

While there are many options for consumers to choose from whenever they step into a Costco store, especially for families on a budget, some products do tend to lean more to the pricey side of things. Costco’s prepared food options like pre-made chicken tikka masala are known for being more expensive than at local suppliers, which is something to keep in mind when planning your weekly shop. Delicious? Yes. Expensive? Absolutely. Well, that is the price of convenience, especially if you work long and tiring days.
