worth it for us just on Gas. My wife works across the road from it. average at least 100$ per year savings in gas alone. meat isn't really a savings factor, but quality is much better than supermarkets here. Cheese can be huge savings. Feta , parm, brie, balderson cheddar. Baking supplies and spices often huge savings. If you are willing to wait , they often have huge discounts on high end small appliances. kitchenaid mixers, blendtec blenders, nespresso machines. Return policy is crazy good too. we had a holder tab break off on a drop bowl for kitchenaid mixer we bought there. phone kitchenaid and the support guy told us just to box everything up and take it to costco , instead of waiting for kitchenaid to do something. Walked in and within 15 mins we were walking out with a new in the box unit. I think their electronics policy might have changed but they used to double manufacturers warranty on most electronics .. called concierge program in Canada. Not sure about other countries.
