Cheerios 40 oz
Costco 8.49 Sam’s 4.88
Canned chicken breast 6 cans 12.5 oz
Costco 16.49 Sam’s 11.98
Frosted Flakes
Costco 10.99 for 62oz Sam’s 5.88 for 55oz
I thought that when Costco opened, we might just give up our Sam’s membership, but I don’t think so. I was surprised it was that much difference in prices for some items. Salted cashews were less at Costco than they were at Sam’s.
Check your prices before you do any serious shopping at Costco

Lived in S. Florida before moving to TV. There was a Costco and a Sams about 1 mile away from each other. Sams was never busy and was closed down. Personally like Costco better. Better service and their cafe department is way faster. Sample products at Costco are much betterr. Went to Sams recently. Several venders told me to wait 15 minutes for a sample. Never that long at a a Costco
