    We have to start a new saying: Not everything is better with bacon! so people stop buying it and the price can go down. Reverse supply and demand!

    Dr_Pain That’s why I pulled a full belly from the freezer on Tuesday to thaw. It’s my rainy day fund when I got them cheap, have another belly and a half left for more rainy days.

            kyle same here. I just left COSTCO and bellies are about 40 cents a pound cheaper than my last visit. Their name brand bacon actually went up about 10 cents a pound. At one time their bacon was less than the bellies.

              HerbcoFood I’m looking forward to checking it out, not sure the wallet is tho. I tend to go overboard when shopping at a place like that

                        Dr_Pain I have both. I like Sams better for most items we buy, but I picked up a COSTCO membership last year at a half price special. For us, if I had to chose I’d stay with Sams, but both are nice. I have the Plus with Sams and get cash back there. I only have the basic a Costco because they are a lot further away.

                              GWG8541 Dr_Pain I also have membership to both but shop 75% Sam’s Club. Love the Scan & Go and the cash back pays for for the membership every year

                                My local Sam’s is about as clean as a dirty Wal-Mart, it’s also a pain in the butt to get to.

                                  HerbcoFood that would turn me away. Sounds like a management issue.

                                    GWG8541 For sure, haven’t been back in 5 years actually, my Costco is much easier to get to, they have the few things we buy in bulk.

                                      My local grocery has Duroc half bellies for $4.99/lb. At that sort of pricing I just stick to Wright Brand bacon from Sam’s Club which is WAY better than the Costco bacon.

                                          The one and only Sams Club on Long Island while close to me is also not very good. Costco and BJ’s are all over the place here. We have 3 Costcos within 10 miles of each other and the same with BJ’s. I’m a member of Costco & BJ’s. While both are very similar there are enough differences to warrant both memberships.
