"Before I couponed I did almost all of my shopping at Costco because I had learned that buying in bulk could save you money. I would spend about $6,000 a year at Costco. (YIKES! o_O) Now that I know how to coupon I do most of my shopping at Albertsons. Do you want to know how much I spent at Albertsons using coupons last year? $900, plus I have lots more food in my pantry.
I will still go to Costco for things like bread, milk and eggs if they are not on sale some where else. I still keep my membership. I think Costco has a lot to offer. But when it comes to items you can buy with coupons many times Costco can not compete!
I did a little price check at Costco today to show you how much the Albertson's ConAgra Promo going right now ROCKS!
