I loved Target when I was on vacation in America a month ago! I never got to visit Walmart & Costco. I visited Trader Joe's though! They have an AMAZING Ranch Seasoning! I even brought it home to Denmark in my luggage and use it nearly every day! That's how good it is! Mix it with low fat greek yogurt/skyr to make your own high protein ranch dressing! 🔥

I think you can get it for like 80 cents a pound currently at costco!. Though the organic is about 1.10-1.30$ a pound though. Not sure about anti gmo, but they've been saying unfortunately that there's been rumors some pesticide that makes non organic oatmeal easier to harvest has links to infertility(???), it's gossip though but I heard there might be a credible grain for rat tests. I guess oatmeal is still pretty economical so if you pay 50 cents more a lb, a 1/10th lb portion is only 5 cents more and it's a great source of fiber. But it's still basically 50% more per pound i suppose. Do say i suppose, im not sure if a lot of people can afford kids in this economy but food for thought. Great deals for sure! Just wish the news didn't constantly say everything was killing us haha.

Wow! Costco should hire you for their marketing department, Mama T. We have a Walmart in our town, across the street from my favorite brewery, in fact. But the nearest Costco is 3 towns over. However, to save that much money, with the right way of stocking up, it seems worth it to drive over every couple of weeks. Great video, as usual.

Maybe a change would be fun for you and the kids!

@@MamaTenny I am from Germany 🇩🇪 Walmart was trying to get a foot into the German market, but they weren’t successful an they gave up in 2006 😅 Grocery stores in Germany are different and discount supermarket chains are popular, e. g. Aldi or Lidl. I think here’s a highly competitive market. Customers are quite price-conscious, but they don’t need a lot of service, e. g. they are packing their groceries on their own. As far as I understood, Walmart didn’t get the German shopping culture. Next Costco is in the UK. If I travel there, I might want to go there.

Also Costco has a membership where if you spend a certain amount Costco will basically give you a free membership.

another way to save money instead of buying greek yogurt I usually make homemade greek yogurt by using instant pot to save money. The only downside is it does have little higher carbs.

Go price eggs, milk, cheese, chicken and ground beef. Cherry picking exotic products makes you look like a scam artist. Costco price gouges on essentials... $7.19 Kirkland Signature 2% Reduced Fat Milk, 1 Gallon, $1.94 Great Value 2% Reduced Fat Milk, 1 Gallon

I understand why you could not compare Cosco to Sam’s Club (the Walmart version of Cosco). I believe There are no Sam’s Clubs in Canada. In my humble opinion, a much better comparison (truly apples to apples) should have been comparing Sam’s Club with Cosco. But again it’s hard to compare when you don’t have a Sam’s club available to you.
