Why My Costco Membership Is Worth It For Me Only: Gas Discounts and More

  • I was a Costco member for over 25 years and, for five years, I have been making purchases just for myself.
  • Costco has great food deals and I save money by buying my electronics and tires there.
  • I regularly save 25 to 30 cents a gallon on gas by going to Costco.

When I joined Costco in 1997, I lived in California with my then-husband. We would wander the aisles, loading our cart with all sorts of fun things, then go get pizza from the food court.

After we split up a few years ago and started buying just one, there was no way I was going to give up my membership.

After all, the wholesale club has 129.5 million membership card holders, which range from small households to medium-sized businesses. I was sure I would get the most out of my membership to purchase one.

Luckily, I found plenty of single-buyer deals at Costco. Here are my favorites.
