6 Reasons Moms Feel Like They’re At Disneyland While Shopping At Costco

After hearing all the rave about Costco, and having a deep-seated hatred for all things Sam Walton related, I was eager to see what all of the fuss was about.  The first time I walked into this Mecca, I was dumbstruck.  Literally.  It took me a good 10 minutes to move past the TVs and computers in the front.

Now, Costco is almost a weekly ritual for me and my boyfriend.  After all, he is the card-carrying member, so I let him tag along.  We have discovered the joys of a year's supply of allergy medicine (which cost roughly the same as a 30-day supply elsewhere), panko-coated chicken and dark chocolate covered acai berries.

My daughter has reaped the benefits, too.  Costco sells a 3-pack of facial cloths at an unbelievable savings.  And not any old generic facial cloths.  We're talking the good stuff.

All this money-saving is not the biggest draw though.  Can you say “free samples”?  I must warn you – go to Costco hungry.  Don't eat a big breakfast or lunch before venturing in or you will miss out. The free samples are divine. Oh and don't forget to grab a $1.50 hotdog and a drink on the way out! 😉
