Thank you for the podcast on shopping tips, budgeting and menus, even though some of it is basic ideas it helps to be reminded on how those steps can help a mom not become overwhelmed with grocery shopping and meal planning. One thing that helps me with Costco, is to have a family member or friend share in the cost with some of these items. Like you said in your podcast about using within a certain amount of time, there is no way a family of three can buy some of these items at Costco and justify the expense. However, when I have my mom go in with me and share some of these items she needs as well, than we both save. Thanks again and cheers! Shannon
