There’s a kind of science to making your Costco membership an investment. It’s all about learning what to buy and what not to buy. There must be a perk to buying at members-only warehouses. Here’s a list to help you along.
Kirkland Laundry Detergent – Don’t Buy
Don’t buy it no matter how cheap it is. You’ll be saving money on detergent but you’ll be spending more to buy new clothes because your cheap detergent damaged your clothes. Plus on ointments to soothe the allergic reaction and skin irritation it caused.
Kirkland Maple Syrup – Buy
Real maple syrup is usually too expensive that’s why people buy an alternative, which is corn syrup. Kirkland’s syrup is the real deal, 100% pure maple syrup. It’s not only cost-effective but the 1L bottle is big enough to last quite some time.
Books – Don’t Buy
If you’re a bookworm you’ll be drawn to the book section but resist the urge to buy a book. Some of them might be a little cheaper than you’d find elsewhere but you’ll definitely find better deals online or during sales.
