| - The best type of consumerism is the one that gives back to the consumer. Costco cash back fits this bill nicely. Currently, you will receive 3% of all gas purchases and a 2% return on all Costco and Restaurant purchases up to $4k a year. After you hit your $4k annual return, the rate drops to 1%, but money is money and there is no annual fee as long as you have a Costco membership. We are here every two weeks and drop anywhere from $100 - $300 so I will be more than happy to receive any type of return possible.
Costco, once known as Price Club (to the fellow New Yorkers) has almost everything you can imagine fairly priced and in an abundant stock. Some of the absolute deal monsters we took advantage of were their Vizio 42' TV's (under $500), Men's Nike Polo's (under $15) and Kid's Carter PJ's ($8 for a three-piece). We love the free samples as you never know how certain products taste and we have been surprised how well certain items come out in a good way (talking to you Spinach and Mozz Raviolis and Basil Pesto Sauce w/ Pre-sliced Mozz).
The on-site Gas Station and Ophthalmologist are nice perks as well. Overall, if you are preparing for a dinner party or have more than 2 kids, Costco is a MUST visit/shop. There wine selection is on point and fair and their meats (ie. Lamb Chops, Flap Steak, Filets, Pork Tenderloin, Alaskan Salmon, etc.) are always fresh and delicious. Where else can you get a package of 12 packets of Roasted Seaweed or Two-Pack's of Coconut Milk for THAT price?
