Must be nice. My nearest Costco is 2 hours drive away. There is one grocery store in town, a second one 40 minutes away, then Wal-Mart and several other stores another half-hour past that.

That said, I love the little ranching community I live in, and the beef here is beyond delicious.

Costco used to be an hour away, but they finally built a new one in the next town over, about a 15-20 minute drive depending on the traffic. I’m very much enjoying having access to the nicer cuts of beef. Those $5 rotisserie chickens are an amazing deal, too, and fully feed the two of us at least 3 times, if not more. After having it warm like a roast chicken, I shred what’s left, and use it in casseroles or chicken salad, whatever. Very versatile, and so easy on the wallet.

When the Bounty paper towels aren’t on sale, the Kirkland brand ones are pretty sufficient. I’m very much enjoying having Costco somewhat near me.
