hi everyone okay today I'm going to take
you guys with me to Costco because there
are things you should be buying at
Costco and there are things you should
not be buying at Costco every time I go
to Costco I get really bad anxiety
because I see all these family's
bindings they should not be buying that
are super overpriced and I just think oh
the money they could be saving and using
towards vacations or other fun things so
today I'm going to show you guys what
you should and shouldn't buy and I'm
also going to share some tips to make
sure that you always get the best price
because not everything at Costco is a
crazy deal so let's get started
alright guys are you ready to get
started obviously it's been probably all
day here and go up and down every single
aisle and tell you whether it was a deal
or not but this video would have been
over an hour long and I'm sure you don't
want to watch that so I'm gonna pick a
choose handful of the best items or most
popular items that most families are
looking for to give you guys a head
start on what you should and shouldn't
buy so before we get started don't
forget to subscribe to my channel so you
guys don't miss more money-saving videos
all you have to do is click on the
little I in the corner to subscribe and
after you're subscribed please make sure
that you're getting notifications
because that way you'll actually know
when a new video goes live that will
help you guys save money especially
since we're getting close to Christmas
season and I don't want you guys to miss
out Halloween candy is something that
you should buy most of the time at
Costco you're looking for 18 cents or
less per ounce I know you guys have
heard me say this before but you really
do need to get out your calculator and
do math so this is $15.99 / in 90 ounces
total cost is 17 cents or a little bit
under 18 cents per ounce so this is a
great price for candy alright guys let's
talk about TVs because we've actually
purchased two of our TVs here from
Costco during one of their sales so
priced TVs that they have here
especially may get closer to Black
Friday and the holidays because you
really can get some great deals on TVs
printer ink is one of the things that
will vary depending on what printer you
have but typically it's a lot cheaper to
get your in care Costco in our huge
multi tax or if you want to save even
more money you can just bring your
cartridges in to get refilled and save
even more money
Carter's pajamas are here all the time
for infants and toddlers anything under
nine dollars is typically what I'll pay
for pajamas for my kids in those sizes
so make sure you come here you don't
have to use the coupon like you do add
the actual Carter store and they usually
have some super cute prints Costco can
also be a really good place to get all
the snow gear that you need for you and
your kids coats are 16.99 snow pants are
14.99 and a lot of these are name-brand
light london fog so this is a really
cheap option especially for kids who
grow super fast
batteries are also a really good thing
to buy here
the Kirkland brand yes is the Costco
brand but most of the time these store
brands are actually made and
manufactured by the same people that
make the name-brand batteries like
Duracell or energizer so this seventy
two pack of batteries is eighteen
ninety-nine
that's a steal guys okay guys you cannot
forget about the toys Costco has really
great deals on toys if you're not sure
all you need to do is pull up your phone
do a search on Amazon and see or use 1e
the price checking apps that I've talked
about for a list of low in the YouTube
description but to give you an idea this
brand new toy from lion guard its defend
with a pride lands playset amazon has it
right now for 21 16 and Costco has it
for $14.99 guys that is a huge
difference in price and that's going to
be the difference between buying more
choice for your kids or putting that
money towards a travel fund or something
else fun for your kids to do okay guys
don't believe me let's try it one more
time
these are the Disney toddler dolls
Costco has them for $15.99 this is going
to be one of the huge items that a lot
of girls will want $15.99 for these
types of dolls is not a lot of money I'm
betting they're $20 or more online
yep these are $24 - eighteen to twenty
dollars through Amazon so do you guys
see how great of a deal these dolls are
and other toys are through Cosco you
guys have to price check these
especially for Christmas gifts and
here's another one to quickly show you
guys because I literally cannot get over
or show you guys enough how different
the deals are okay this is the Nano or
the zip nano drone it's $24.99 which is
a great deal for a drone if your kids
want a drone this is a really cheap
option online it is thirty six bucks
since this October when I'm filming this
video you guys have to know about
costumes at Costco costumes are as cheap
as $15.99 and these are the Rubies
costumes which typically go for about
$30 online so I would get her early if
you want to get costumes where your kids
before they're all sold out I mean it's
October and they have Christmas stuff
out so you want to hurry get over here
and get some these costumes they've
everything from Disney Princesses to
fireman to Teenage Mutant Turtles
there's lots of stuff here and this is
the place to buy really great costumes
at a great price without having these
old coupons or discounts or deals or
anything like that
all right guys these kitchen bags from
Kirkland I will not buy any other brand
because this price is always the best
price for trash bags you get 200 trash
bags for $12.99 the price literally
cannot be beat by any other brand and
these trash bags are awesome so I just
buy these every single time okay since
we're moving over to the food section I
have to give you guys a little tip bring
it your weekly ahead with you for
whatever grocery stores in your area
it's one that you should probably just
get in your mailbox bring it with you to
Costco because if you're not good with
remembering prices or price points
having this to help you especially with
produce prices meat prices and those
types of things
will really open your eyes how expensive
some of those items are that you thought
were great deals all along so I'm going
to show you a few of those deals in a
Smith's weekly ad and the prices here at
Costco and how they compare this apple
juice is a great example of not a good
deal they have two hundred twenty eight
ounce bottles for 829 64 ounce apple
juice it goes on sale for a dollar 67 or
less multiple times throughout the year
so you should never be buy an apple
juice here another good example of
things I will not buy at Costco is soda
this is one of the things that you will
overpay for every single time you come
so these 36 packs are 1049 which after
doing a little math ends up being 349
per 12-pack guys do not spend that much
money on a 12-pack 12-pack should be
under $3 for sure and I typically won't
buy 12-pack and Lex
unless it's 275 or less so sorry
don't buy soda here you'll waste your
money one thing that I do love about
is that they will do a price per item or
price per ounce you can quickly see like
how much diapers is like a really big
one right you want to know how many or
how much it cost for each diaper so
right now these are 19 cents per diaper
those are 21 cents per diaper the
Kirkland brand of diapers is a great
price point at 15 cents 16 cents for
size one diapers so if you're going to
buy diapers here I would go with
Kirkland brand if they work good on your
kids if they don't it's cheaper to buy
Huggies and pampers and those other
brands somewhere else and when it comes
to baby wipes you want to be at 1 or 2
cents per wipe kirklands are two cents
per wipe and the hub use version is two
cents a wipe so these are both pretty
good deals apples is another thing I
will never buy at Costco because it's
usually a lot cheaper the grocery store
I won't spend more than 99 cents per
pound for apples and here they are
always over that price and every single
time I've come the apples are too
expensive one thing you guys know I love
about Costco is their cakes it's like
the best deal ever
it is 1899
and they serve 34 people they are
amazing cases of breaking out the ad
because grapes are a dollar 28 per pound
right now at Smith's I like it when they
get down to 99 cents but that doesn't
always happen for some reason grapes are
typically expensive but if you see here
at Costco their grapes are a dollar
eighty seven per pound it's drastically
different so that's another example of
prices that are just too high here so
today I typically would imbibe
blackberries here because they're
typically cheaper through Smith's but
today they're actually cheaper for Rosco
a six ounce is 250 and this 12 ounce is
four dollars and it's organic so this is
cheaper than what Smith has going on
this week so it'd be an example of how
the ad really helped me to know whether
it was a better deal to get my stuff
here guys Co or about it it's miss
prices are always going to change with
me that's why I like to have the ad with
me
so the boneless beef chuck or rump roast
$2.99 a pound it's missed and it is 399
a pound here at Costco but sometimes
that's cheaper at Costco so again this
is one of the ideas now you have to have
an ad to help you know what oka prices
or if you should go to a different store
to buy some deer meat and I would be
crazy if I didn't mention this this is
the best history chicken in the world
it's $4.99 for 3 pound chicken it's the
best deal out there of any grocery store
I've ever seen so in case you don't get
these it's definitely something to get
and to break up and put in different
food items or casseroles or things that
you're making and have a great meal so
hot dog started to gross me out when I
realized what was in them so now I only
buy Hebrew national or other kosher 100%
beef only hot dogs typically for just
one package it's about five bucks but
you can get four packages for $8.99 here
so this is the deal of the century if
you're like me and are picky with your
hot dogs bread is also another item
that's typically a lot cheaper at Costco
I know there's lots of different kinds
of bread so I can't really break it down
for you but our bread has always been
cheaper here by far so we always get our
bread here across the
cereal is one of the things that's hit
or miss here at Costco sometimes will be
a deal in Sanders it won't so you can't
just buy it expecting that it'll be a
good deal this is 55 ounces honey nut
cheerios since boxes are typically about
11 ounces I divide it by that I end up 5
boxes so this is equal to 5 boxes and
then I take 789 and divide it by 5 and
get a dollar 57 a box you guys know a
dollar 50 a box or less is typically
what I go for so this would be a deal
that our family would grab especially
because going to another store to find a
better deal than that would waste my
time okay this is the perfect example
I'm so glad I found this okay so this
Kirkland applesauce you know the pouch
is that your kids love or whatever you
can get 24 of them for $9.99 which is
only 13 cents per ounce which is awesome
but then I come over here last week they
were 1099 without the manufacturer
instant rebate and they had less
packages of applesauce
but they're exactly the same product so
that's why I'm telling you guys
sometimes some items will be cheaper
depending on whether they have this or
not so things you might buy or not buy
will totally change depending on what's
happening from week to week or month to
month and don't forget about the gift
cards these gift card offers are awesome
from theme parks to restaurants to
American Girl doll
gift certificates just I mean there's so
many rays to use these gift cards or use
them to help buy presents nuts are
another thing you'll typically want to
buy at Costco because they are a ton
cheaper than the grocery store okay guys
I hope I blew your mind today and helped
you realize some things that you might
be buying that are too expensive we
can't go to Costco hopefully it'll save
you guys some money that's the whole
point of this video obviously I couldn't
get to everything so if you guys do you
like this video and maybe want me to do
like a part to come below and let me
know but I wanted to make sure you guys
knew what you should buy what you
shouldn't buy so you guys can save more
money when you go to the grocery store
the grocery store is the easiest bill
that you'll have every single month you
can save the most money on if you're
art and then you could take that money
to help pay off bills or pay off debt or
start working on that vacation savings
time that I've talked about in my
budgeting video if you haven't seen that
click on the little hi in the corner and
it will help you out but going on
vacation doing fundings for family and
having money to do those things is super
doable if you're smart with your grocery
budget and what you buy your grocery
store so I hope this video helped all
right I'm gonna go check out so I can
hurry and go get my kids from school and
I'll talk to you guys next time
please make sure you give this video a
like and if you have any questions or
want me to do like a part two of this
POSCO type of video comment below and
let me know alright
