One thing I like to do to save a little time and money is to use the Costco membership to buy those every-day things in bulk.

The membership as of now is $65 a year plus tax. If you like saving time and money, this is worth it.

An example of my favorites is (these prices are subject to change of course): a 2L bottle of extra virgin oil is $22.99. I would find this at an outside store for about $10 more.

I also buy a good-quality 30-roll package of toilet paper, currently for $23.49 and DUDE wipes (8 pack) for $25.99. Depending on the quality of the product, you’ll spend a bit more on 30 rolls of toilet tissue at another store. The DUDE wipes are around $7.99 per package at another nearby store. If you do the math on just these 3 items alone, I am usually saving between $40-50 in just 3 bulk items.

As a single mom, I need all the time that I can save as well as every dollar. I find the $60 per year (plus tax) Costco membership very worth it! Hope you do too.
