Olive oils


Only olive oil I have used in the last three years. I also buy their sea salt. They have a really good frozen lasagna.

Not their product but they sell Mateo's salsa in big jars. Really a ton of good items to throw in the freezer or pantry

See if you can walk around before you buy a membership.

I had one for two years and recently did not renew.

There's only one in the NOLA area and it's kind of PITA to get in and out of.

Their Kirklands brand is top notch but honestly a lot of the things they make, I don't like or need. Meanwhile, a lot of the things my kids eat, like their snacks and stuff, they don't carry.

The Members Mark Brand at Sams, for the stuff we need, is just as good as the Kirkland brand. The stuff that everyone says Kirkland is awesome for... I am sure it is but it's not stuff we like or use.

Meanwhile Sams has more snacks and stuff the kids eat, plus, there's 5 different locations all within a reasonable drive for me.

If they come back with some great joining deal we may join again but it wasn't worth it to me to have both Costco and Sams and we got a lot more value of of Sams.

If you get the regular membership and you fill your vehicle 3-4 times a month, the gas savings alone will pay for the membership.

The wife and I have the Executive Membership and every year we get a check that easily pays for the membership and puts around $75 in our pockets since you get a percentage cash back on purchases.

Their Kirkland brand liquors are pretty damn good. Four packs of frozen pepperoni pizza are around $12 and will easily feed 3 of us.

Like already mentioned, their Olive Oil is a good value. They also sell Kirkland brand tomato paste, diced tomatoes and tomato sauce, all labeled organic and at a great price.

A pack of 40 containers of bottled water are around $4 and their own brand of toilet paper is a good bit cheaper than buying the same size container of Charmin.

Street taco kits are great. Most of the soups are good. The milk is much cheaper than regular stores.

Their golf balls are actually decent. They got sued by titleist a few years ago for patent violations.
