WOOHOOO! Sam’s Club and Groupon are offering their awesome voucher deal again,which means it’s a great time to try out a Sam’s Club Membership!  For $25 (wayyyyy less than the regular cost of a membership), you’ll get:

• Sam’s Club membership ($45 value)
• One complimentary membership for spouse or other household member
• $5 eGift Card (allow 5-7 days for delivery)
• Free Rotisserie Chicken loaded to membership card within 24 hours of activation

This is only offered one or two times a year, and is available while supplies last. If you’ve been considering a Sam’s purchase at all (read this to see what PPP thinks about Sam’s Memberships), this is definitely worth checking out! (Valid for new members, or those who have not had a membership within the last 6 months).

You guys. 

I am so.

sooooooooooo.

Seriously, SO.

. . . . excited about this! (Did you catch that?) 🙂

My awesome PPP team has put together this crazy fun (FREE!) reference guide for you if you ever shop Aldi. Or Costco. Or Sam's Club.

You're welcome. 🙂 

I was shocked (seriously, SHOCKED) by the results. I really thought Aldi would win just about every price, but you know what?

They don't.

Case in point? Vanilla extract.

Don't believe me?  Go see for yourself.

CRAZINESS, right?

After seeing these prices I was pretty surprised at which items Aldi sells way cheaper (canned veggies anyone?), which items Sam's Club carries for the very best price (butter sticks . . . ), and which items are worth making a trip to Costco for.  (Need aluminum foil? Costco's the place to be!)

Of course, as in everything, there are some limits. The prices at Costco and Sam's may be higher (especially on produce) than Aldi, but the size of your pineapple (or watermelon, or whatever), is likely smaller.

And, there's no way to compare Costco's amazingly yummy Ghirardelli brownies to the Aldi Baker's Corner brand (which actually end up costing you more money. WHO KNEW???) 

But, this is a great reference guide that we hope makes your life shopping and deciding where to shop for certain items just a wee bit easier.

So, head on over HERE and print your free list, and please leave a comment to share your thoughts! I'd love to hear which items you're surprised by (a bunch surprised me) ~ let me know what you think.

Note – these prices will vary some by region but this hopefully gives a starting place ~ would love to hear your thoughts on this!
