40 Favorite Costco Finds

Disclaimer :: Costco Wholesale sponsored this post by providing Fort Worth Moms Blog Owner Emily Y with a gift card to try out and stock up on Kirkland Signature items. Uh, let’s just say she exceeded the gift card limit — and couldn’t be happier about it.

True story: I became a Costco Wholesale member last year at the Costco Mom Hour. The steal-of-a-deal price on sweet potato fries alone convinced me. We had been and still are members at the “other store” but decided to give Costco a try . . . to see what all the hype was about. I mean, hundreds of women showing up to shop Costco MUST be on to something.

It didn’t take long to create a list of favorites and go-tos for our monthly Costco shopping visit. When approached by Costco and City Moms Blog Network to again participate in Costco Mom Hour 2016, the answer was a hearty YES. And when asked to share some of my favorite Costco items, I gave another hearty YES.

Creating a blog post about my favorite 10 things to purchase for my family at Costco? A piece of cake. (By the way, I’m also a fan of Costco cake. No lie.)

40 favorite costco findsBefore I drafted my post, I asked the Fort Worth Moms Blog team: What are your favorite items to purchase at Costco? It only took about 35 Facebook notifications to make me realize this “favorite finds” post needed to include WAY more than 10 products. You, dear reader, are the beneficiary of our Costco Facebook group love fest. Below are my family’s favorite Costco items AND those recommendations from the FWMB staff — all 40 of them!
