Costco


Pocatello is growing up! We finally have our very own Costco. It's hard to believe that our small town could attract something so big. I hadn't ever been to a Costco until my sister took me about 3 weeks ago in Utah. I was in awe at the variety, sizes and prices. It was the best thing EVER!

So, today we went against our norm of avoiding 'grand openings' and Saturday crowds as we ventured out to Costco with all 4 children plus one friend. How brave are we?! We figured that we would just go in and look around and as we pulled up we realised that we still needed a membership card to go in. Sooooo, we waited in line for 15 minutes to get our membership and then we headed in.
It was pretty crowded but it was FUN! We filled up our cart with a variety of excellent foods at super great prices AND we fed the kids with all of the free samples. It's exciting to have somewhere great to shop. I think I might actually enjoy food shopping and not avoid it so much. I know my kids will thank me for that!

Wow - Pocatello is sure growing up in the big world! Now you may NEVER leave. Costco is my buddy - I seem to make it there once a week. Even if I need to just walk around and window shop. They always have something new and interesting, great deals on stuff like Carters sleepers and its the only place to buy diapers in my opinion. Yeah for good shopping in Pocatello.

Costco is my second home! I LOVE that place. I've bought everything from my fridge to my washer and dryer there. Can't beat the prices.
