love me some costco! it is probably my favorite store in phoenix ... mainly because you never know what super fantastic special purchase you might find. this new one has a great stock of merchandise. one must be cognizant of prices however. i have found that some items, like soda and beer, are actually cheaper at the regular grocery if you catch the right sale. over the counter medications can be the same way. it is important to be aware, that's all. don't assume that just because it is costco it is cheaper.
clothes were impressively high-end at this store (7 for all mankind jeans, under armour, etc.) and i'm stoked about that because most of my dear husband's work pants and polos come from costco. and i was especially thrilled to find my favorite (and expensive) Bliss bath products in an extra-large super value pack in the health/beauty section - at only $17.99. yay costco! yay low prices! yay friendly workers! 5 stars all the way.
