Shopping at Costco can save you money!

Buying staples at Costco (or similar warehouse store) can save you money. Now I say this with warning, if you buy all the other stuff they have in the aisles....you will not save money! I am going to show you a few comparisons, with stores where I believe they have good prices on these items!  I bake a lot or bread and bread related items.  So if you do alot of bakig pay attention to the staples you use!
