Sunday after church is usually Costco day. Albeit one of the busier days at Costco, it’s conveniently located on the way home from church. I’m thankful we live within 20 minutes of this superstore. It helps us save so much money and buy good quality groceries. Here are my favorite Costco grocery must haves for a large family on a budget.
One of the best items to get here is Kirkland’s grass fed salted butter for $9.99 for 2 lbs. It’s absolutely delicious and you can’t beat the price! We buy most generic items when the quality and price can’t be matched.
