Costco or Sam's Club: The great debate.

I eat alot.....ALOT!! This adds up to quite the grocery bill especially here in Hawaii. So to help cut food costs Rachel has decided to plant an organic garden. If you haven't already seen her Garden Blog just click here. In the mean time we have been going to Chinatown for all our freshfood on the advice of some of the locals. It has been going pretty good there, I mean it's interesting to say the least. (lettuce, tomatoes, pig's head.....ya know, the usual) Finally, we had to make a decision between Costco and Sam's Club. Neither of us had ever been to Costco so we decided to take a chance and go there. WOW. There were tons of amazing deals and we weren't forced to buy everything in bulk. Bulk is nice when you want to buy toilet paper, but a 55 gallon drum of mayonaise doesn't do us much good. :) Anyways, it had everything and our favorite deal was the milk, $4.50 a gallon!! That's crazy. We haven't been able to find milk, even in bulk, for less than $6 a gallon.
