He said money back not money made on things one would buy anyway.
When is my invite hahaOh, I don't drink that stuff. I prefer Bourbon. However, I buy it for my FiL and other family members that are hours away from a Costco. I like the Kirkland Vodka and Rum though. Kirkland Vodka mixed with Kirkland Naturally Flavored Sparkling Water and some juice from a 5 pound bag of limes is damn refreshing on a hot day while turning wrenches.
I'm waiting from them to bring back this:

Also I made a horrible mistake, the vodka is Grey Goose, they wanted KT41 but settled.
That's not how it works. That's just spending the equivalent to what you've already put into it. Making your money back is getting $50 - $60 in savings.
We've got a Costco opening up near us in a couple weeks. Any thoughts on if it's worth it or not? We have a family of 4.....
Negative. You got your $50 bucks back, you are back into the black on a ballance sheet. Do what I suggested a few times and you will be deep into the savings.
RotoChicken @ Costco $4.99.@Martins $8.99 = $4/each
Mobile 1 @ Costco $25.99 @ Autozone $45 = $20
Gas @Costco $2,83 @Near by Stations $3.20/gal (today, just filled up) = $5.97/tank (I fill up 5-6x Month) = $35.52
Right there is like $100 in savings, so you spent $60 to join... That's $40 net.... In barely 30 days if that's all you bought
People like to nit pick "oh I'm spending $50 to save only 50 cents on milk", but it's the over all savings and convince that pays for that membership fee over and over.
If you are a big shopper, the Executive Club gets you a 1-3% return and I know people that get $800 checks at the end of the year. That's on top of any the item savings.
Got a regular membership just to buy a piece of beef. Got a 19lb prime ribeye roast for the same price I paid for a 13lb one from HEB. Difference was about $76, so savings overall was $16. But, I have already recouped the membership cost in savings overall and not through funky math. I have not bought any random item that I wouldn’t have already bought in bulk just to justify the cost of membership. However, I am contemplating buying a box of their king crab legs, cuz dem bitches look good.
