I've been to both for years now.. I don't have a membership to either but my mom has one to Costco. She used to have one to Sam's, but she has since turned Anti-Walmart... so yea. I'll go with her every few weeks to check out their movie selection for my business... But there's no way J and I could use up any food item I'd buy from there. Their produce does look nice though, and I know my mom really likes it. And their flowers are nice, but its more of just a display, not a dept. Sam's here has a full floral dept. And their rotisserie chickens are awesome. Their movie selection is ok... Neither one carry any dog food we'd care to buy.. otherwise, I'd definitely go there for it, since it seems to be pretty cheap. J's brother has a Sam's membership, and I've gone with him a lot. He only has one to Sam's because there are more locations here than Costco's... so if there's a good buy (he sells movies too), he can go to multiple locations for them.

I think they really benefit larger households and business owners... It's definitely not worthwhile for people like us, just two mouths to feed.. Everything would go to waste before we'd get around to eating it. And I cook everything, too.
