I had sworn off warehouse clubs because I knew that I spent a lot more than I saved. Then my son's birthday came up, and I heard that Costco had a great train table set. So we joined just to get the train table, and we have not regretted it at all. It is just far enough away from our home that my trips to Costco are not too frequent. About once a month I go to stock up on basics and shop all the cool items they have. They have a great selection of books, movies, and housewares. In addition, their "Kirkland" brand is outstanding for everything from pharmacy items to food. Seasonally they have a selection of furniture, toys, etc. I really like this clean and friendly store.
