I did! Got quite a few looks...but no questions as to what I was doing! 😂

Hi Kristen, Loved “going shopping” with you and Caleb at Sam’s Club. We don’t have Sam’s Club in Australia although we do have a few Costco’s around our country. The closest one in our state is about an hour away). We have been Costco members over the past 11 years on and off (as our closest one is about 10 minutes away from our in-laws) although we found in years past a lot of items were not necessarily cheaper than Aldi and our other big nationwide supermarkets (Woolworths & or Coles). We also have a few independent supermarkets eg IGA and or Food Works in small towns and neighbourhoods which can be somewhat on par with the cost of groceries from the bigger supermarkets. We do miss speciality foods from The USA that we have enjoyed in the past from time to time only available at COSTCO eg Mozzarella Sticks, Take N Bake Pizza, Pastry’s and Dessert Pies etc. Also if one was to open closer to us we might think about re joining especially since now grocery prices are so expensive these days it doesn’t particularly matter which supermarket you shop at although ALDI is the cheapest of the 3 big nationwide supermarkets in Australia. We always try and shop the sales. A few years ago we found a small localish Fruit and Veggie Shop which is alot cheaper and their produce is always lovely and fresher than ALDI etc. They also have a wonderful instore deli which also stocks a range of assortment of sandwich meats/ cheeses/ olives etc as well as a range of fresh butcher meats think (chickn legs, chicken breasts, an assortment of all flavours of sausages (I think you might call them sausage links in the USA)- Italian, beef (thick and thin), lamb chops, rissoles (think burger patties), pork chops, mince (think hamburger) etc.

I love hearing about all the places you shop in Australia! That's interesting that Aldi is definitely the cheapest for you over there too. I'm glad you have found a local place for cheaper fruits and veggies too because those definitely add up. As for Sam's, it is interesting because we started shopping there since my husband has a card for school. I go through seasons where I shop there more and less. You are right that the speciality items are some of my favorites there at the big box stores like Costco or Sams too! I hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend!

@@joyfullythriving , Thanks so much for your sweet reply! We have had a wonderful weekend thus far. We just arrived at Chuch for Music Practice as Hubby is our Churches Guitarist. Morning Service starts in about 40mins time. Yesterday I had such a lovely day sharing in God's Word with 500+ other wonderful Christian Sisters in Christ today from 65 different Churches of different protestant denominations (including our own small Church and one we were previously attending many years ago) in our around our region @ Wollongong Women’s Conference 2024: UNITED! It was great catching up with other ladies whom I haven't seen in quite some time! I was thankful for my dear friend Emma (her and her sweet family attend a different Church from where we do) and she kindly invited me to share in such an encouraging day! God Bless When I got home I wasn’t surprised to hear that Peter and our boys had a fun Dad & Sons Saturday Funday! I can imagine it now….. Video Games, Nerf Wars in the back garden but oh no they tell me that they did all do that but they also went to the Salvation Army Thrift Store to have a look around and also enjoyed some Fried Chicken for Lunch! Hehe 🙂 #wwc24united #wollongongwomensconference
