I work at Costco. You can spend $500 in the blink of an eye. Ps.. there's no Tax in Florida., or Oregon either. No Sales Tax. The price you see, is the price it is.
The 🧂 Does makes the ☕️ smoother...The Salt Makes The FLAVOR POP...the same way it works on Watermelon, Cantaloupe, & Oranges..makes the flavors pop My mother use to put a dash of salt 🧂 in her ☕️ everyone LOVED💕 Her ☕️ COFFEE She told my father and us kids never to tell..

Watching them shop I remember why I don't grocery shop when I'm high. I have no problem walking into Costco with an idea of what I need and walking out pretty close to exactly my list.
Yup...now days with the prices so high I stick to my shopping list too but I've noticed I have $800.00 dollars more a month left over STICKING TO THE LIST🥰👏👏👍
Buying bulk = cheaper prices. Not because it's poor quality. You have to realize there are tons of farms and cattle in the U.S. Meat, (and anything bought in bulk) by companies makes it cheaper. Hence the cheap burger prices
The thing about Costco is that it is primarily about selling by the bulk, in other words, there’s MORE for the price. It’s more ideal for larger families, parties, providing food for a workspace, etc.
I actually really like this family, they eat weird stuff to me but I forgive them. lol. She won me over when she tried to buy her son a guitar to play while they were here and was going to donate it to goodwill.
Goodwill is a private for-profit company. Don't go thinking they are some altruistic non-profit organization. However, her intentions were magnanimous.
@@jdm1066 it doesn’t matter, I can tell you as someone who has live below the poverty line there entire life, I have always been able to keep small appliances, dishes and pans in my house because of places like goodwill. Do you really think it matters to us how they run their business if that means I can afford to buy a roasting pan when I need one? I am not trying to come across bitchy but…. If places like goodwill and Salvation Army didn’t exist there would be a lot of people much worse off.
Wait, You don't pay sales tax on drive thru/carry out? What state do you live in? Here in California, anything hot/prepare is taxed. I assumed it was like that is most states.
@@SpiritWolf209 Nope lol. Probably nowhere but Cali. I've never heard of tax on drive thru or carry out food. Thats ridiculous. I'm sorry but Cali needs to stop gouging people for everything they've got. Makes me angry
@@user-wr9ej6xe4j I agree with you. The prices and taxes are way out of hand. They even tax ice. They consider it prepared and unnecessary. It sure seems necessary when it's 104° like today.
Fun Fact: Costco loses money on what they sell, because they sell it so cheap, they make all their money from the memberships, that is their business model. One of their best sellers is a whole cooked roasted chicken for $5.00, a friend of mine gets at least one of them a week. They sell them in plastic containers, so you can take it home and eat it, and it is still warm.
I love going to Costco but not their price tags. But my most favorite part of the trip is getting their ice cream. They are now serving strawberry sundae with vanilla, chocolate or a twist of the two.
Anyone is dead wrong who's telling her that UK food prices are cheaper. Maybe those people are from California where things are a lot more expensive, so Uk prices seem cheaper to them lol. But generally UK prices are a lot more than the U.S. Also Costco is an American company that's in many countries now
I grew up on a farm in America. A lot of the organic stuff in the US is a scam. All they have to do is meet some very minimum standards to be able to put that label on their stuff. It's still done with pesticides and crap. You guys should watch a video on somebody debunking organic.
I always thought the grocery store had a big bin in the back, and all the organic came from the same bin as regular. Just popped an "organic" label and added $5 to the price. Who would know?
I thought $150 at minimum. I use Costco gas. The savings by getting your glasses there almost pays the membership. And the Neutrogena body wash is much less at Costco than anywhere else I’ve seen - including Amazon, if you can even get the same size.
No sales tax on grocery except for things with sin-taxes like candy bars, small sodas, and alcohol. They got the most expensive stuff there. Organic anything costs 2x more than conventional products. Almond flour makes amazing cookies and muffins. It is a necessary grocery product for diabetics trying to avoid high carbohydrate wheat flour. Meat is plentiful and cheap.
Costco is worth it if you buy in bulk. For my two person household, I don’t find it particularly useful because the only things we buy in large quantities are paper products like toilet paper and paper towels which we can get large packs of elsewhere. Large containers of food will go to waste before we use them most of the time. So it really just depends on the family and what their needs are. It’s also a great resource for small businesses
Nut butters last for months. Quality at Costco is excellent. I'd question it at Sam's club. I use almond flour to make baked goods, I'm a diabetic, no carbs in it. She missed the deal on the olive oil, the best ranked isn't the one she picked up. A lot of the stuff they were looking at has the discontinued mark on them. The vegan and impossible stuff. They put the price per lb/oz then the total price. In regular grocery stores they do price per lb/oz on loose produce and weigh it at the register. I thought they weren't getting out of there under $250.00
In my mind, I composed a great box of non-perishable items to send to you guys. Wow. Maybe somewhere there is a grain of rice with allowed item engraved on it. The list of not allowed completely emptied out my imaginary box. 😢
I belong to both Costco and Sam's Club, and I always go with a list to limit my spending. I do prefer Sam's Club website compared to the Costco website because Sam's Club tells you what is in stock at your local club. I do think Costco is trying to tell you what is in their local warehouse market.
Be careful what you ask for, if we all had your address, we'd all be sending you guys food all the time!!! Also, stores like COSTCO exist for the joy of consumers because of capitalism and free enterprise. This is why our food options are over the roof. And one other thing....things are cheaper in the US because most of the things they bought were packaged (which likely has preservatives in it) and frozen things. These things can last a while on the shelf of a market before the market has to take it down prior to the expiration date and this allows profit. When you buy things fresh at a town market, it only lasts for a certain time frame before going bad. The food in other countries are for sure better for you because of this.
Honestly, $9.99 for a squishmallow is pretty good; where I live, you can hardly find them in any size for under $20. That flotation device is essentially a wrap-around pool noodle. Personally, I don't like those fruit bars; they're called bars, but they're more like sticks of jelly. Not a fan. And I'm wary of some vegan treats because yeah, a lot of them are terrible; my tip is if you've never tried it before, see if it comes in singles instead of full boxes & that way if you do like them you'll know to get the boxes next time & if not, that's less money wasted. Plantains are in the banana family, but they're harder & have to be cooked before you can eat them. I do actually like plantain chips, so I buy them a lot when my store has them on sale. Bush's does make vegetarian baked beans which are just as good as those with bacon. I swear, if you guys didn't badmouth your government so much, I'd love to send you some stuff but you're always saying you'd never get it. Hope you can visit the US soon. The main difference I noticed between those large bags of rice & what their son had was his was easy to make (just put in the microwave) whereas those bags require a rice cooker; I'd rather have the cilantro lime rice.
Hello guys, I love watching your videos. You are one of my favorites because you are honest in your opinions even tho I sometimes disagree with them. I also love Josh and Ollie, the Beesleys and the Graham Family. Stay safe and happy.
Brothers, I hear all that you don’t like in Algeria compared to what you see in the videos. I do not know a lot about Algeria, you should make a video once in a while about something that is good in Algeria? Maybe something traditional you would not find in the west?
@Habibi Brothers Are you guys allowed to receive packages from the U.S.? If yes, are you allowed to get packages that contain our brands of snacks or coffee?
They're looking at everything that's more expensive than normal foods -- organic, things made with alternative flours (almond flour), and processed vegetarian meatless meat products (that was the Impossible brand stuff they were looking at). Costco has a great selection of those types of products, but it's not what the majority of people eat in the U.S..
A couple of things are common among ALL grocery stores here in the U.S. Doesn't matter if it's Cosco, Sam's Club or your local large grocery store chain. Always, always check prices. Some things are much cheaper, other items are not and if it's "organic" it is always at least twice the price of non-organic. It's the cheaper prices that draw you in because you think everything will be cheaper. It's my understanding that the U.K. is much stricter than the U.S. on the type and use of pesticides so they are more into the organic stuff. Here in the U.S. a certain portion of the population prefer organic foods/shopping but the majority of the population is not. Because of this organic foods are much more expensive here. I'm so old that organic is a waste of money for me. I shop for quality and reasonable prices.
it makes me sad when I hear the problems you face getting good food in your country. It makes me even sadder knowing that if I tried to send you some items to try, the items would probably never get to you.
Let me tell ya'll, those floating pool seats are great! Organic doesn't mean anything in the US. There's no laws or regulations surrounding it, you can call anything organic. LOL, you realize that huge bucket she picked up was Nutella, the hazelnut spread. Those frozen burgers they were looking at were impossiburgers..... i.e.: vegan "meat"
I like your channel but cannot hear/understand what you are saying. It is interesting to know your initial thoughts since I don’t think you were born in the US.
Organic is not always better, but it does cost more. For them to worry about their oats being the organic expensive bag is crazy to me. Her husband found a bag 2x the size for less and she passed. Just crazy wasting money. That's my reaction.
The miracle of consumer capitalism. Through competition and free markets you have way more choice and at a better price. There are downsides but overall, undefeated.
I'm shocked to see how much processed food they sell (and they eat), and how expensive are the healthier products. Not to mention the fact you're forced to buy big packs and pay for big packs, even if you would like to eat less and save money for someyhing else. This is sick to me.
Food prices are ridiculous right now that should be $80 number one and number two we don’t get paid enough. We get paid shit in the United States. I’d rather pay $200 for that food and minimum wage be $15 an hour capitalism.
I work at Costco. You can spend $500 in the blink of an eye. Ps.. there's no Tax in Florida., or Oregon either. No Sales Tax. The price you see, is the price it is.
Florida has no tax on groceries.
😂 we have a sales tax, just not on food.
No sales tax in Alaska or Montana either😉
The book she was crying about is a children book, a story of the a child meeting challenges, dealing with the ups and downs of growing up.
It's also a good gift for graduating students too. Me and my little brother got one but for some reason our sister didn't.
It most likely reminded her of her own kids being small and reading it to them.
If your coffee is bitter take just a pinch of salt, stir that into it, see if it's not smoother.
The 🧂 Does
makes the ☕️ smoother...The Salt Makes The FLAVOR POP...the same way it works on Watermelon,
Cantaloupe, & Oranges..makes the flavors pop
My mother use to put a dash of salt 🧂 in her ☕️ everyone LOVED💕 Her ☕️ COFFEE
She told my father and us kids never to tell..
I think she just wanted everyone to think she had magic 👐 hands
LOL...
Because she used a special 🧂 SALT ..IT WASENT TABLE SALT
Also, don't buy Dark Roast for the same reason.
Hello brothers
I love your reactions
If you're on a budget, Costco is not the place for you lol
Watching them shop I remember why I don't grocery shop when I'm high.
I have no problem walking into Costco with an idea of what I need and walking out pretty close to exactly my list.
Yup...now days with the prices so high
I stick to my shopping list too
but I've noticed I have $800.00 dollars more a month left over
STICKING TO THE LIST🥰👏👏👍

All non-Americans get excited shopping in the US for two reasons:
(1) The size of packages, jars, etc. and especially --
(2) The variety/choices.
I think Costco is best value for larger families- or, people who live in the woods and stock up for a month or two at a time.
The thing about Costco is that it is primarily about selling by the bulk, in other words, there’s MORE for the price. It’s more ideal for larger families, parties, providing food for a workspace, etc.
Also: I need to resist getting a new plushie each time.... Because I love my plushies and stuffed toy animals.
Those aren't normal plushies. Those are squishmallows. They have a special filling and double as pillows. They feel amazing.
Squishmallows are nice, my sister has like 30 of them.
I actually really like this family, they eat weird stuff to me but I forgive them. lol. She won me over when she tried to buy her son a guitar to play while they were here and was going to donate it to goodwill.

@@GentleRain21 you're not totally wrong. Organic only applies to what the farmer does. The factory that processes the food can do whatever they want.
Things went up in price up to $2 to $3.
Taxes vary from state to state. Here in Ohio, there is no tax on food, unless you consume it on the premises where you bought it (like a restaurant).
Peanut butter is moist and smooth. Almond butter is really dry and hard.
I LOVE COSTCO.

You can add a small amount of salt to cut the bitterness in coffee, that or a small amount of cloves
I go in for 1 item....come out with food strapped to the top of car😂. It's a trap in there
Nothings better than peanut butter but they are all pretty good
If they're adding dirt to your ground coffee, see if you can buy whole beans instead.

They did well with the amount of money spent because I was thinking at least 300 dollars because of all the organic food.
I was thinking around the same price
If I get out of Costco for less than $500, I call it a win.
Although I buy large amounts of meat there.
Now that you've become familiar with Costco, you HAVE TO WATCH the movie Idiocracy. Trust me bruh! It's hilarious!!! 🤣
It’s much cheaper to buy bulk especially if you have a large family. All that organic food! All I eat is junk compared to them 😂.

Nobody goes to Costco to pick up a few things.
You'd be surprised at how many people can do that.
The impossible meat they were looking at isn't meat at all. It's a meat substitute for vegetarians and vegans if they want a similar item.
I bought a Texas cutting board there. The clothes are great.
I wish we could send you two some stuff; is there anyway to do so?

The people in this video are vegetarian/vegan so they vegetables and stuff with no meat. So the burgers and nuggets are meat free.
Or made with a substitute from beans or tofu (which is made from soybeans).
Do you guys have Amazon there?
Foods are not taxed. You can get fat at Costco just looking at all the food products. They need a personal shopper who know about healthy foods. 😂😂
Be careful with nut butters. You can be allergic to them as my wife found out.
