Question about my grocery budget: is a warehouse club membership worth it for a 2 person household?
I was tracking my grocery spending in a spreadsheet for 3 months and realized I was spending $600 a month for just me and my wife. The thing that tipped me off was a receipt from Costco where I bought a 5 pound bag of almonds and half went stale before we ate them. So now I'm stuck between two views: one says buy in bulk and save per unit, the other says you waste more than you save in a small household. I'm in Cleveland and we have a Costco and a Sam's nearby, but I don't want to pay $60 a year if it's not going to help. What's your real experience with this?
