7 Costco Breakfast Items With the “Biggest Savings”
Costco is the perfect place to shop for breakfast. From some of the best deals on eggs and bacon to pre-made breakfast sandwiches and wraps, your local warehouse offers so many delicious items at great prices. If you have ever wondered how the deals on breakfast items stack up against other grocery stores, a new CashNetUSA study has the answer. Researchers analyzed prices at Costco and compared them to three competitors: Walmart, Kroger, and Target. Then, they ranked items overall and by category based on the most significant savings at Costco. Interestingly, out of all the categories, breakfast offered the most bang for the buck, with five of the ten items having the most substantial savings at Costco vs. other supermarkets on morning-specific food. Here are 7 Costco breakfast items that offer the biggest savings.
Croissants
Larger-than-life muffins, cakes, pies, and cookies have put the Costco bakery on the map. But if you want the most bang for your buck, pick up a package of croissants. They are the best breakfast deal in the store, 49.3% cheaper than other grocery stores. People rave about the French-bakery inspired treat, which is sometimes offered in almond or chocolate varieties.
Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix
You can make pancakes from scratch, but many foodies maintain that Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix is as good, if not better. The 10-pound box offers a lot of bang for the buck, 46.4% less than stores. “Best pancake mix ever,” writes a shopper. “I’ve been using Krusteaz buttermilk Pancake mix for many years. It makes perfect pancakes and waffles. If you store it in air tight containers you can freeze it if you don’t use 10lbs before the expiration date and it doesn’t affect the taste or performance of the product. LOVE IT!”
