Worst: Rice
Many shopping experts said that Costco is not the best place to buy rice, Jasmine in particular. When a frequent Costco shopper investigated, she saw that the rice sold at her in Costco was up to 35 per cent more expensive. This was compared with the same product sold on the Asian local market. There were some cases in which Costco paid $40 for rice while in a small shop it was only $14.
Worst: Dried Pasta
Buying dried pasta at Costco won’t make you lose all your money, but if you really want to get your money’s worth, you might want to buy somewhere else. There are a lot of better places to get your pasta with a much greater deal. When compared to Walmart and Trader Joe’s both have better portions of past and cost less than the ones from Costco.
