Should You Buy Christmas Gifts at Costco or Sam’s?

Should You Buy Christmas Gifts at Costco or Sam’s?

Yesterday I made a super quick trip to Costco and Sam’s, and realized they have several items on sale for Christmas that you don’t want to miss! Like always though, you’ve got to do your research to make sure you’re really getting a good deal.

Several of the items were significantly less at Costco and/or Sam’s than I’ve seen elsewhere, while a few were just priced high there. I definitely recommend always checking before you buy (be sure to download the Amazon App so you can compare), and make sure you always get the best price!

I was thinking about it and while many of the prices are only off by $5-$10, if you can save $10 on 10 Christmas gifts this year you’ll save a whopping $100. Definitely worth taking a few minutes to make sure you get the price, and if you keep up with PPP you should save way more than $10 on most of the items posted here! 🙂
