Quite a few. I buy canned kidney, garbanzo, and green beans there. Also
baked beans, tomatoes/sauce black olives and corn. They do carry soup and
chili in normal sized cans. You just have to buy them by the case. The
canned chicken, tuna, beef and turkey that we buy come 6 to a pack. We buy
single serve hummus cups. Yes Boli they do carry them! I was just looking
in the wrong place. They are not with the large tubs of hummus. Don't ask
me why!
Some of the cereal isn't too bad. Yes the box is large but there are
usually two bags inside. If you don't mind just using the bag with a chip
clip on it and ditching the box, it will probably fit in your cupboard.
A few weeks ago we bought shredded Mexican cheese. We bought the 2 1/2
pound bag. They had larger. That amount is doable for us. So are some of
the sliced cheeses. But Kraft American comes in a whopping sized package.
The blocks of cheese are mostly pretty big. But cheese does freeze well.
What I do with some of the stuff is give it to the food bank. For instance,
peanut butter. It's still cheaper for me to buy the two pack even if I give
away one jar. We were buying the three packs of ketchup and giving one
away.
I buy cases of water and sports drinks there.
Once they were giving out samples of cheese dip. It was really good but you
did have to buy a huge can of that!
It has gotten to where Costco is the first place I go now for my weekly
shopping. Most weeks I get cottage cheese (yes it is huge but we eat that
much), individual packs of baby carrots and sliced apples. This past trip
we bought sliced turkey. Sometimes I get ground beef. Can get it in 3, one
pound packages. I usually have to freeze one which I don't like to do but
we just can't eat them that fast. Also get really good frozen, precooked
patties. The organic chicken breasts are in a doable size as well.
