For all you Costco shoppers

[LennG]

If you belong or shop at Costco, you know they have their own line of products, Kirkland. Bet you didn't know that many of these same Kirkland products are really made by the regular manufacturer and if you had to buy them that way it would be way more expensive.

Take Kirkland ground coffee. If you look closely it says it is roasted by Starbucks, only you are paying a whole lot less. From Liquor, to batteries, to mattresses and a lot more.

Take a look at some other products and maybe you will want to rejoin Costco.

To add my two cents: I went on their web site and booked a trip to Hawaii, and it was cheaper than other sites I also got a free ocean view upgrade. Another thing I did was bought a Toyota Hybrid with the Costco car program. The have dealers that give you a no haggle price online. You go and don't have to say anything to the dealer the price is already set. Lastly, I got both car insurance and homeowner insurance through Costco. I almost never go there. But I buy stuff Oline. The travel and insurance is all online.
