Whole sale prices are where the magic is at. I have to check what Sam's and Costco are selling at these days. I rarely buy meat at regular retailers because their mark up is insane.
- jollyllama 3y agoAround here, Sam's has been gouging for beef. If you go out into the sticks, you can find grocery stores and farms that sell cheaper. Especially if you're buying in bulk.
- bityard 3y agoMaybe it's different where you are but I have had both Sam's and Costco memberships (not at the same time) for the last couple of decades and my experience is that their food prices simply do not touch regular grocery store prices around here. The only advantage the membership clubs seem to have is that they are usually going to have what you need if you need if you need to buy like $500 worth of meat for a party or something.
- daotoad 3y agoI go to Cash and Carry (well, they've renamed it about 15 times in the past few years, so it's actually US Chef's Store or something dumb like that) for wholesale pricing on meats. Costco near me is pretty much the same price per unit category as grocery stores unless I go to their special wholesale outlets. Costco has better quality and variety that the standard grocery options though.
