You can try freezing them. We freeze bread all the time. No difference in quality when you take it back out of the freezer to thaw in the fridge.
My mom had a membership there way back when, too. I remember we often had other people go shopping with us because they didn't have a membership and wanted to use my mom's card. There was a time when I was 17, that the store actually let me use her card. I was buying mass amounts of hot dogs, popcorn and chips for my birthday party. It was crazy. I had a friend with a truck to load all the stuff up. I'm sure the checkout person knew it wasn't my card, but I was with a group of people and we were in major party mode and I think they just let us slide. That was probably my happiest memory of Price Club, Morena Blvd.
I joined Price Club back in the early 80's in Hayward, CA. I was single and a [single] friend convinced me to join. I don't remember if there were joining requirements, but I worked for a large telecom company so maybe that was my "in".I first waded into the warehouse mania in 1982 in San Diego, when I lied to get a Price Club membership at the old Morena Boulevard location. (That's Warehouse #1 in the entire system, if anyone cares.) In those days you had to own a business or be Civil Service to belong. I was Active Duty Navy at the time, but was able to use my non-military building security pass as my photo ID, and they gave me a membership. I'm sure there was a fair amount of elbowing each other and <wink wink> going on at the time behind the counter, and they likely could tell exactly what I was doing. I wasn't alone. There were lots of military folks inside Price Club in those days. It's much different now. But those hot dogs and soft drink combos at the Food Court are still $1.50.

When I married we kept the membership which eventually morphed into a Costco membership and we soon got a store in a closer location. We've been loyal customers ever since................even if we now have to drive an hour to get to the closest store.
Let's see, we were just there yesterday. We bought:
Like six dollars in ft Myers to buy eggs, only cage free available.Maybe the chickens belong to a union?
Eggs at my Costco aren’t that high, and the larger quantity packages, the 18-packs and such, are usually about the same as a single dozen at the grocery store. So not sure why that is for you.

, I'd probably give up my membership.
Well, I'd argue all day that one can find similar quantity, quality and prices for things like paper towels, trash bags Ziploc's and TP at other stores. Having said that, we do buy that stuff at Costco, IF we're out there for other items. Same with laundry detergent, paper plates etc. We get those things at Costco if we're there, but none of them drive us to shop at Costco. And the thing about most of those items is they're once a month type purchases, if that. So if you're in Target or Walmart or similar even once per month, chances are you'd be able to buy the same product at similar prices (often much less if you actively shop sales). Heck, even my local HD, which I'm seemingly in every week, is often competitive on Bounty paper towels, for instance.
I do like Costco steaks. And they run good deals on tires. But we've gone from once a month to maybe once every 4-6 months. If it weren't for tires and the seduction of scoring some other random good impulse buy
Yeah, I get that. There's no doubt that cruising the aisles at Costco is more fun that at Target. I like Costco, but I hate the free samples and consequentially clogged aisles, long checkout lines, etc. Plus, and this is big, it's on the other side of town from where we live. If it were more convenient to get to (and in and out of), I'd go more often.
Argh... I don't think I want flat eggs.
