MY 1st TIME AT A COSTCO!! COSTCO HAUL & SHOP WITH ME| Tres Chic Mama

[@TresChicMama]

I completely forgot to add the individual prices on the screen!! 😭 Next time I will!!

[@debrosenbloom1731]

Yes please essential

[@lolansangou1311]

The cool thing about Costco is that they pay their employees better than Sam’s and other stores and give them better health plans etc, so that’s why the higher prices… and as a former service worker, that’s great IMO! I don’t mind the higher prices when it’s for that reason! Also better quality products at Costco than other big boxes! Love Costco! It’s my fave!

[@lolansangou1311]

Also germ anxiety here too! Costco on the weekends is the worst! lol

[@TresChicMama]

Aw that’s amazing! 👏

[@novamom1962]

I love Costco. We have both cause I like things from both stores. But I will say Costco is much better.

[@juliewilliams4068]

The egg bites you can put in the freezer. Happy New Year

[@lilycloy]

Costco is the best! I am glad you shopped there :)

[@TresChicMama]

I definitely LOVED the variety!!

[@mommysambam4281]

Tuesday mornings at Costco is when I’ve always found it less crowded ❤

[@TresChicMama]

That will be my new go to time then haha

[@mdevery8894]

Hi - I went to the new Costco in Scarborough last week too. We liked it and can see some items we will purchase there.

[@wildflower4380]

I have a Costco in my town already but they are building a new Costco here as well that’s going to become the biggest Costco in the world so far. So I’m very excited because my city is big and the Costco we have right now is always packed!

[@wildflower4380]

It’s going to be a little over 241,000 square feet! And a 9 minute drive from my area in town. So excited 😊

[@TresChicMama]

OMG 😳 that’s insane hahaha I can only imagine how big that really is

[@donnahenson812]

It pays itself off for sure. The meats and fish are always fresh, never had any bad meats. Baking options are always widespread. The extras are fun I always find neat things that you may not see at Sam's.

[@reganstandlick7520]

The Nature Bakery bars are so good. I make them last months. Great for lunches My favorite is the blueberry

[@ruebennomura9143]

Love Costco haul is my favorite did good

[@samanthakwait8782]

I love those burritos for lunch!

[@laurenciampi7441]

I love your hair! ❤️

[@amandaraujo37]

We like Costco and Sam’s! A Costco secret is that if a price ends in .97 it’s a clearance and .00 a managers special 😉 Ours is already clearancing Christmas decor because by Christmas they take it all out!

[@TresChicMama]

Oooo great tip!! Thanks 👏

[@homewithkarri4486]

My friend only gets gas at Costco (has for years) & their mechanic told them Costco has the cleanest gasoline 😀 I love getting their Kirkland brand of paper products including toilet paper & the Unreal brand of candy is so good!! 😀👌 Lastly I don’t know if Costco has this but Sam’s Club has the scan & go in their app & my husband & I use that when we shop at Sam’s 😊We just scan the items as we put them in our physical cart & pay on the app when we’re done shopping, by passing the long checkout lines & going to the exit line where they check our digital receipt 😊

[@cassandramoon5824]

I tried those chocolate quinoa crisps yesterday I loved them!

[@TresChicMama]

Oooo great to know! I was so intrigued

[@AngelM.-.-0]

My daughter loves the Undercover quinoa crisps, they have that in target as well. I give that to her if she’s asking for a “treat”. We also love the That’s It bars!

[@TresChicMama]

Oooo I’m so grabbing them next time! Thank you

[@juno2013]

Due to Costco crowds & germs everywhere I wear a mask 😷. I’ve noticed in my grocery stores people are masking more. I think it being flu season, it’s not a bad idea.

[@TresChicMama]

Ugh this time of year truly tests my germ anxiety 24/7 😫🙃

[@kherrell08]

I keep those collapsible crates in the back of my car, they ate perfect for only making in trip inside after running errands.

[@TresChicMama]

I think I’m going to grab one next time! They seem great!!!

[@am74573]

I love Costco. I don't like crowds either so I never go on the weekends. I usually go after work in the middle of the week. I always buy Rao's sauce there. The prepared meals are good. I've heard good things about the cranberry jalepeno dip you showed so I'm hoping to get some. In my Costco in Tennessee they do have discounted gift cards.

[@TresChicMama]

I heard great things about that dip!! It’s so big though so I may just buy it when going to a gathering to test it out 😋

[@racheldyer9250]

We love those fig bars! They also have these granola protein cube things that are awesome too!

[@TresChicMama]

Ok I think my family member just told me about these! I’m looking be t time! They have lots of yummy sounding ingredients 😋

[@mariajaniegoulet7653]

Thank you so much for the tour of Costco …. We in West Virginia don’t have one.

[@TresChicMama]

Thanks for watching!

[@mariajaniegoulet7653]

You’re very welcome 🤗

[@walterwinters3855]

Girl I hear you about the germ anxiety I’ve been the same way pre c-vid . I just find it hard to still see people being inconsiderate about spreading there germs as if nothing .

[@Lyssa0095]

They just put a Costco in my town also!! ❤

[@mamafromhawaii]

wow your first time at Costco!! I love all their organic options, but even as a family of 4 we can't eat through a lot of the food/snacks there lol. So glad you have one now! Mine has baby bell cheese and string cheese, but yours could be different. Thanks for taking us along ◡̈

[@TresChicMama]

It’s so tempting to get it all at once but like you said, it’s difficult to get through with just us. So I restrained 😅

[@kaitlynchase8061]

You should try the Clorox sanitizing mist!! I just discovered it and I’ve been spraying down EVERYTHING to help keep the kiddos from getting sick so much.

[@ChrisMatik]

I like the mani you are wearing in this video, Haley! Looks great on your nails! Nail polish looks always looks great on both hands and feet!💅

[@TresChicMama]

Thank you! Admittedly, I do not enjoy keeping up with nails 😅 But a friend who does nails wanted to try out some new products! So of course I said yes!

[@beachlover4413]

Just from your typical food prep, things that are good deals are maple syrup, olive oil, paper goods like towels, and toilet paper when on sale. The rotisserie chicken is awesome. I am also a small family and most packages (chips etc) are too big. Even the prepared food is expensive and large. and I won't pay for things (like soups) I can make myself. I find this store to be overwhelming all the time. You should get a sale circular with coupons periodically which is helpful. I know the feeling about germs. I hate being in crowded places as well. I had a hard time sending my kids to school, knowing that they would come home with many gifts (germs). I also have a lot of trouble spending so much because I still have to go to the store for fruits and veggies, milk, and bread. But it is fun. And I agree, Sam's is cheaper but Costco has more variety.

[@LMCEK]

Lol omg thank you for your germ anxiety honesty lol. I really don't enjoy Costco at all because of the insane crowds, husy-ness, and line ups lol. I didn't want to write a comment discouraging you from Costco but you literally saw on your first trip what I've disliked for years! The upside is they have some unique stuff as well as some good deals sprinkled in. But you have to know your prices as many things are the same price or even cost more than other big box stores! 😅

[@TresChicMama]

Sometimes it is so overwhelming!!! 😵‍💫I completely understand

[@karenzantop2441]

Oh I am one of the 4,lol always shopped at Sam's but never been into a Costco

[@TresChicMama]

Haha glad I could share a bit

[@AlmightyZeus-i8e]

Long live Costco. Should put one in Augusta or Bangor.

[@Lisa-kz7vw]

I had a Costco membership year's ago let it go just got another membership I hate how crowded it always is though I try to go really early like when it opens be at door still crowded but way better than later in day definitely have a great selection and prices are way better than my grocery store.

[@TresChicMama]

Yup next time I’ll go mid week first thing in the morning 😵‍💫

[@i5263sweets]

The earlier you go to Costco the better like right when they open here they open at 10:00am they do have some gift cards they in a card board sheets and they have certain ones to get also you missed a lot the soup is excellent and pasta you can freeze it freeze bread and everything, meat and chicken are good pizzas, are a good price for the cheese pizza, the egg bite Starbucks are good they only have 5 pack so you could eat them fast, but you can refrigerate them a long time so no worries there, cheese yes they have it n a cold storage area or the small isles past the meat section they don’t carry everything all the time so get it when you see it if you need it . I love your nails so pretty

[@TresChicMama]

I’ll have to go back for sure!! I realized there aren’t too many egg bites packs 😅 we are almost through them already 😋😋😋😋

[@aheartysliceofmommylife4949]

We get some of the same things as you. Surprised you didn’t try the rotisserie chicken. It is delicious. Not organic though. We got lots of cheeses there. You must of missed a whole section. We get string cheese, baby bel and mini mozzarella for lunches for the kids. Their price on blocks of cheese is great. We get a 2 lb block of cheddar and I shred it as I need it. Also the Parmesan and locatelli blocks. They are the good brands. Great price for organic eggs. We also buy meat and separate it into portions. Much better price. I think you have an extra freezer. If you don’t that will be tough to store.

[@TresChicMama]

Ugh I must have missed the cheeses!!! Next time I’ll ask someone 😄

[@meganbarto4138]

Great haul!! I want to try those chicken cilantro burritos. They look so delicious 😋

[@TresChicMama]

I’m hopeful!! They sound delicious

[@leeshc5952]

I like Costco but I prefer Sam’s. I tend to buy more, spend less there (plus I love the Sam’s app!) haha. I do miss the Just Bare chicken breasts in the frozen section at Costco!

[@TresChicMama]

I am so shocked they don’t have the scan & go offer through the app! That is the best

[@leeshc5952]

@@TresChicMama same, scan and go is the best or the Plus membership for pickup and free shipping!! I couldn’t do the prices and lines at Costco anymore and made the switch to Sam’s. 🙂

[@elisestarday6372]

Why does Maine take forever to have particular places there?! Amybody know?. I always look forward to your grocery haul videos because it truly helps me spend wisley on groceries :). You have head back and get the muffins as well as those spicy chicken sandwitches as well as chicken bake ones!

[@TresChicMama]

I swear it’s because our Population is lower 😭 or something! I’ll definitely try those items next time! I never dare buy frozen chicken sandwiches unless someone else tells me they are good first 😅

[@jessicaskibicki7156]

I have a massive germ issue too!!

[@TresChicMama]

Ugh the struggle 😵‍💫

[@fridalopez9362]

Yes🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@district12-]

Yes clubbing in our 20's was a totally different thing 😂🤣

[@TresChicMama]

🤣 lmfao from mini skirts in 10F to browsing trash cans at Costco! Life is wild

[@lisanewell4646]

We’ve been twice since it’s opened, and we’re 4 hours away.😂 My rule for Costco is that we can only buy what we can’t get at BJ’s.

[@TresChicMama]

Hahaha that’s devotion!

[@hayleyheindel3465]

While I love Costco products, the anxiety Shopping there is way too much for me. I am always completely exhausted mentally after costco so I try to go as far apart with my trips when I can.

[@TresChicMama]

I can totally see that happening 😮‍💨

Same with the anxiety when it comes to germs Walmart is the biggest trigger for me I move so fast in that store 30mins or less 😂😂😂😢
