Never thought of stopping at Costco in Clermont on the way home though we have started that with Trader Joe's. With Costco coming to 466, might need to consider a membership to try it out.

We are truly spoiled. Up north we had 5 Costco (6 opening soon) 4 Trader Joe’s, 3 Sam’s 2 commissary’s, 15-30 minutes. Shopping weekly for fresh fruit, some poultry, dry goods for baking or pasta. Our eggs, beef, pork, most vegetables and fruits came from the 4 local farms, and our family.
We have preferred Costco over Sam’s since day one. Quality for us is better, 3 houses of appliances, all of our tires, batteries, lawn equipment. I don’t compare prices, because what I buy at Costco, Sam’s doesn’t carry, but I do have an app if need be.
My Dyson died after 2 years, I was replacing, when Costco manager told me to return broken for full refund. You won’t find a better Customer service and return policy that Costco offers.

We were spoiled in SoCal. Lots of Trader Joe’s including one just a 5 minute walk from our home. Costco was a ten minute drive. And of course Disneyland, the OG, Walt’s park. Grew up with it from age 3, and miss it so much every time we’re at Magic Kingdom. Night and day difference. When we do go to any DW park we make a stop at TJs in Dr Phillips on our way home.

I think I’ll try Sam’s Club to check out their meats since I eat very low (almost zero) carb for pre-diabetes, so mostly meats and animal products. I truly appreciate great quality meat.

Agreed about Costco CS. Can’t be beat.
