Am I Addicted to Costco? The Answer is YES!

Everyone who knows me also knows I will extol the virtues of shopping at Costco at the drop of a hat. The purchasing power you have at your fingertips is amazing! And well worth the investment of the basic (Gold) $55 yearly membership, or better yet, the Executive membership at $110 which also gives you 2% back annually on most purchases! We save an average of 30 cents per gallon on gas, and many many dollars by buying most of our frozen, canned, and pet supplies there, and countless others! More on that in another post.
But I found a VERY cool way to find out the latest and greatest items available at Costco! Some fellow Costco-heads have a neat blog called Costco Couple. Wild, right? The have a daily post with information (including pricing) of at least 3 new products in most Costco stores. Woohoo!! Check 'em out, kids! :)

My New Favorite Rewards App: SHOPKICK!



     Hey kids! 
Did you know you can earn rewards just by walking into a store, or by scanning specific products? Yep! SHOPKICK is a cool app to check out that does just those things. It's free (natch), and you can start earning "Kicks" (their lingo for reward points! cute!) right away. For example, today is their "Super Saturday", and I will be getting 100 "kicks" just by walking into Vons, 150 by walking into CVS, and I could get a whopping 300 kicks just by walking into Macy's! =)  I'm well on my way to my first reward. Hey, Forbes rated shopkick as one of “America’s 100 Most Promising Companies” in 2014....pretty good kudos, I would say! I also say - I do no shopping without rewards! ;D
