Great Tips to Save Even More at Costco

Sharing is caring!

Pay with Costco Cash Card (no membership required)

If you want to skip the annual fee to shop at Costco, find a friend that has a membership to buy you a Costco Cash Card. You don’t need a membership to shop. Just show the cash card to get in the door.

Stack coupons with rebate apps

You can use rebate apps like ibotta, Checkout 51 and other to save even more on top of Costco coupons.

National Vs Local Markdowns

Most prices will end in a $0.09. Other prices are generally things the store is trying to get rid of. Prices that end in $0.97 are markdowns found nationally, whereas if the price ends in $0.00, these are typically local markdowns.

Items That Won’t be Restocked

If you see an asterisk in the upper right corner of the price sticker, it means the store will no longer stock that item. So be sure to stock up if you see the asterisk.

Movie Tickets

Most people know that you can buy discounted movie tickets at Costco. So why are you still paying full price? Usually about $8 each!

Toy Deals

Use your Amazon app to compare prices to Amazon on toys to see if you are really getting a good deal. Costco typically will beat the Amazon price.

Ink Cartridge Refills

You can get new ink cartridges for less at Costco but you can save even more with reusable ink. It only costs about $7.49 to refill your ink cartridge at Costco. Huge savings over most ink brands.

Don’t Forget the Batteries

Kirkland batteries are known to be the same quality as Duracell batteries. So stock up at these lower prices.

Don’t Be Fooled (Worst Items to Buy)

Shampoo and razors are some of the worst items to purchase at Costco. You can get the best deal by using coupons stacked with coupons at grocery or drug stores.

Trash bags and diapers are some of the other great items to buy in the Kirkland brand. And Costco is a great place to buy your sheet cake! Compare prices to your local grocery store or bakery.
