I go to one of those dinner prep places … you go, prep all your food for 16 meals, and freeze it. Then you just have to add sides. I love it.

I have the same problem with Costco – I go and get SOME stuff, but other stuff that is vitally important isn’t there and I always have to go to a regular grocery store, too.

We love Sam’s Club. We actually bought a chest freezer just so we could take advantage of Sam’s. Over the years, we’ve learned what we like and what we will use versus what ends up being wasted. (Love the samples they do so I don’t have to commit to new products without tasting them first.) We buy the majority of our meat there. Once a month we buy hamburger, chicken breasts, tilapia fillets, and usually 1 other thing like pork chops. I come home and divide it all into meal size portions and freeze it. Some of the produce is iffy…some is great. Their prices on blueberries and blackberries tends to be great. Our Sam’s has these big bags of fresh broccoli florets for $3.50 – I buy one everytime. I eat it raw on salads for lunch and steam it for dinner. Even if we don’t finish it all before it goes bad (we usually do), we save a ton versus what it costs at the grocery store.

But I don’t consider it a one stop shopping destination. There are just certain items I need to go to the regular store for. Okay, I’ll stop my novella of Sam’s love.
