3. Chicken breasts
Chicken breast is one of the most basic items that people buy daily. It’s full of protein and nutrients, and it’s definitely way cheaper than turkey. But you should know that Costco sells it pretty expensively. If you have a local grocery store in your neighborhood, you might want to compare prices first to see if there is a considerable difference between the two. A regular Costco customer, for example, reported that chicken breasts cost between $4 and $5 per pound, compared to less than $3.50 per pound at a local grocery store.
Additionally, if you have a Ralphs store around your home, you can also go there to shop for your chicken breasts. Skinless, boneless chicken meat is usually sold for $3.99 per pound.
Keep in mind that these prices are usually for frozen meat. Fresh meat is usually even more expensive at Costco!

With regard to you stated milk prices at Costco, I check prices sometimes and find that milk is almost always cheaper at Costco than Publix and Walmart in southern Florida. Also, I have always been able to purchase single gallons for years.
Don’t buy soda at Costco either. It’s no bargain, and in general you can get it cheaper at many grocery stores.
I get COSTCO delivered WHOLE milk for $3.22, cheapest in DC/VA
Oh my everything I buy regularly 😯
Stop shopping there
Some prices may be a little higher for chicken/meat but I find you always get better quality than like Aldi’s. Same for the fruits& veggies. You do have to shop around between various stores…
thats the price for boneless no skin
i buy it when its on sale
Nearest COSCO is 225 miles away, so I don’t shop there. I used to shop at SAFEWAY but it is 12 miles away, aisles are narrow, stuff is crammed in the spaces, they ceased having a Senior Discount day. I now shop at a mom and pop store, Cole’s Grocery, only 6 miles from my home. They have 95% of what I want, offer a senior discount of 10 percent every Wednesday, handicapped parking is right in front, easy to pop in, pick up a few items, and leave.
These factors offset any price advantage Safeway offers
Wow on the prices didn’t know !!
